The Elephant

Strong and sturdy,
Never afraid,
Kills for its family,
And hard to bring down

A lonely elephant
Living in a world
By himself,
No family around
Shot in the heart
By the hunter
To bring down the numbers
Of the family

When a family
Is brought down
It suffers greatly
Mother didn't see,
Children didn't hear,
Grandchildren didn't speak
Tears create the path
To the two worlds
