--- If I Were An Annimal ---

If I were an annimal,
What kind would I be?
Perhaps a tall giraffe
With a long neck to see?

Or would I be swift
And run like a horse.
Or a great noble eagle,
Flying his course?

Maybe a tiger,
With beautiful stripes
Who follows his prey
and kills in the night.

No, I think I'm a viper
I run from a fight.
But if you tread on me
I'll certainly bite.

Ha! this is good! This is something a child would enjoy reading I'm sure.. but it's meaning surely is deeper...

This is cool, I like it! Me, personally, I would choose to be a tiger. : )
Nicely done sir
