Guardian of the Rainforest
Noble White Tiger
Deep in the rainforest
Where the birds sang in chorus,
A noble feline stood guard
As white as snow.
At the slightest sign
Showing there was a threat.
Even if the sun didn’t shine
The others needn’t fret.
High in the treetop
The noble tiger could see it all.
In one quick hop,
He could stop any brawl.
They all adored
Those who would protect.
Ensuring the unknown would be explored
And all danger is checked.
Always on the prowl
To defend his home
Greeting enemies with a growl
Until the end, he shall roam.
Until another protector takes his place.

The Golden Valley
The difference between light and dark could be as quick and simple as a flip of a switch, the drawing of a curtain, the opening of one’s eyes. It could be more gradual like the slow adjustment of the diaphragm on a microscope, the turn of a planet on its axis, the growing light as you approach the end of a tunnel. A flicker in the dark, a steady glow in the distance, a flash in the night sky.
