Embattled heart <br />In the trappings of melancholy <br />Searching for a light <br />Steadfast, looming large <br />Like a Lion's mane glistening in the twilight <br />Searching for a trapdoor of fate <br />To be written in the manuscripts of time <br />As a survivor, wounded yet gallant <br />The heart of a lion tugged by the vines of destiny <br />To hunt in the path of hope's glimmer <br />Shining forth like the Sun's rays scattering <br />To the grottoes of a den of bleeding lions <br />For the mane to be one with her destiny, the looming sun <br />To hunt in the prosperity of an untamed heart <br />As the lion in you re-awakes to hunt like his ancestors <br />To rekindle the fires of his hearth <br />To transcend caverns of melancholy <br />To the eternal sunshine of an endless savannah <br />Serendipity in the Serengeti<br /><br />Dilantha Gunawardana<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/serendipity-in-the-serengeti/
