BASILISK AND WATER

by

I just remembered how I preened on the TV for hours because of NatGEO wild. My curiosity also assisted me in the venture.

So, I would look and look and look for hours. Though, my siblings grumbled at my new found love-they all wanted to see cartoons.

Anyways, in one of their many documentation of the wild, I came across the BASILISK lizard which is popularly known as the JESUS CHRIST LIZARD because of its ability to walk on water.

Truth be told, I was amazed at the wonders it can do. I’d like you all to;

  1. Some say
    Water is
    The elixir
    Of life
    You’d believe
    It if you
    Ever saw a
    Basilisk run
    Across it
    I’m in awe of
    Of this amazing
    Feat
    The only
    Others time
    It’s ever
    Been done
    Before
    Is by our
    Lord JC

  2. With grace undenied, he did glide
    the basilisk strode across the stream in pride.
    With legs so quick and speed ablur
    Nary was waters surface left disturbed.
    For his eyes were set on his prey
    And not even the stream would bar his way.

  3. Skip across
    Splish, splosh, splash
    Raindrops in reverse
    Ripples on the surface
    Waters sky
    See how I run the race to be number one
