MAGNIFICENT LIFE

 

Miracle, grassroots withstand storm,

The devastating wind uprooted the tree,

Offshoot new branches, time reform,

Creepers find support swinging free, (1)

 

A few birds perished in the rain, fallen,

Chicks survive spread wings, attempt,

Flying high in the sky, caverns tempt,

Prey moving creatures, sweep shaken, (2)

 

Huge catch of fish netted effort, win,

Escapes small fish grow and swim,

Travel miles in the river to the root,

Breeding ground river of life, route, (3)

 

Animal insect species extinct revive,

Mysterious the life cycle, life survives,

Migrate to a feeding ground, breeds,

Wind blows away to distant, seeds, (4)

 

Germinates and grows forests quickly,

Amaze propagation of life strikingly,

A coconut crosses the ocean to an island,

Exhibit life travel climate withstand, (5)

 

Cactus blooms in the desert portray,

Mirage and quicksand, fears display,

Stays oasis, palm trees, water, plenty,

Test of life, elusive mind link fluently, (6)

 

The demise of parents, a time departs,

Child survives, grows, and love impacts,

Border of disbelief, life struggles well,

Acclaimed successful efforts prevail, (7)

 

Sick and weak for a time, recovers well,

Diminish the pale glow, radiant well,

Magnificent life cycle of birth, breath,

Symptom of living symphony wealth. (viii)
