Struggle and Pride
The world stops, time stands still
Nourished soil brings new life
Sun warms pure skin
Hide, feed, grow, survive
Danger is everywhere
Only the strong survive
Maturity achieved
Pheromones fill the air
Springtime rides the wind
Flowers blooming, nests weaved
Suitors fight for their mates
Strength and beauty toil
Elders smile on the young
As they ready themselves
To nourish the soil
