Rainforest- Esther Torres

Rainforest,

Danger,

Drenched,

Hurry, get to safety

Damp forest floor, wet from rain

Heavy thick mist, blinding your sight

Danger, nearby,

Vines, are wet and slippery,

Must climb, must flee, to survive

It’s after you, running fast,

Stalking, tracking, hunting

Look up, you see a snake readying to strike, let go, you plummet

Hide, must hide

Trees shadows, you take comfort, bleeding, blend, mask

Turning, you face, predators yellow eyes

Panther, a predator you see

Nowhere to run now,

Tiger on your tail, Viper above you, a Panther in front

Your trapped, killers surrounding you.

All hungry, all ready to eat, you, a feast.
