The Lion

A poem about my father

The lion

The king, he rules over all things

except me

Sounds of authority in the distance

Nothing but a whisper of neglect to me.

Strutting around with his head held high

Off in the distance i notice the resemblance in me

The lion

The king, carries himself with pride

his legacy

But what's a legacy without things you created

You don't know me 

Paying close attention to the physical features

The lion

The king, his beauty is in my mirror

But I am not a reflection of him

Off in the distance i notice the resemblance in me"
