Today this one was lovely
It unfolded its rainbow tongue with contentment
It sits still under the captivating scenery of a palm tree
I was really mesmerized by its stance
It looked like an angel, roaming carefree
Then suddenly there was a drumming from
A door away
That disrupted its whole tranquility
Terror was evident
Wide eyes and pounding chest
Children laughter from a distance
The sound fades and did not return
It crawled to the other side of the palm tree
Its peace was together once again.
