The Prey

The majestic bald eagle
Takes flight
The sun is
Shining bright

He’s searching
For a prey
He must feed
His children today

His sharp eyes
Spot a tasty hare
Emerging from
Its lair

It prepares
For the kill
Oh what
A thrill

The eagle swoops down
Just above the ground
Its talons catch the prey
Oh what a bounty it found

He flies back
To his nest
Killing is what
He does best

Hungry little mouths
Need fed
And then his children
Will go to bed
