If I
Were an animal
I would be
A gorilla
Not one
That is
Very talkative
But one
That is
Secretive
And quite
With my
Secretive mind
I'd be
Very gentle
And kind
With my
Medium long
Brown hair
I will
Sit in the grass
And watch the sun
Go down every night
I would try to be
Friends with all the animals
In my homeland.
