King Lion

Surveying the savannah

that he calls his kingdom 

majestic in his stature 

full of confidence and wisdom

this king of the beasts
watches over his family
mane waving in the breeze
proud of all that he can see

with a roaming larder all around
his pride can enjoy many feasts

healthy, wise and full of vigour

he rules over herds of beasts

his roar can be heard for miles

letting the world know he is bold

regal king of the African plain

a magnificent sight to behold
