Mikumi National Park
Prayer of the Giraffe
Lord, There is so much politics
in Thy jungle;
such an endless struggle!
Forgive my awkwardness,
My inability to hide;
My long neck careening
Side to Side!
Yet I, Your giraffe,
want to keep
My gentle side;
Allowing my head
to rest on clouds but...
My vision unclouded to You.
Pat my funny head
so I know you've heard
the prayer that I've said;
Protect me, as
I stick out!
Yet, my heart
Wants to shout:
I'm totally
Yours.
