THE SOUNDS OF THE RAIN FOREST
by Alexander H.
THE BEAT OF THE RAINDROPS
HITTING THE LEAVES
THE THUMP OF THE NUTS
HITTING THE GROUND
THE BENDING OF THE TREES
MAKE THE FOREST SOUND
THE CRY OF THE MONKEYS
HIGH ABOVE
THE RIPPLE OF WATER
FROM TWO ALLIGATORS MATING
THE NESTLING OF THE BIRDS
THE POUND OF
THE JAGUAR FEET
ALL MAKE THE SOUND OF THE FOREST COMPLETE
THE CROAK OF A FROG
WITH A DEEP LOW BELLOW
THE FLUTTER OF A WING
FLYING VERY LOW
THE SCATTER OF A LIZARD
RUNNING ALL AROUND
ALL MAKE THE FOREST SOUND
THE BUZZ OF THE BEES
THE SQUEAK OF A MOUSE
THIS ENVIRONMENT
IS THEIR HOUSE
THEY ALL FORM THE CHOIR
THAT MAKES THE FOREST SOUND GO HIGHER
