I believe vultures don’t actually kill lions, but given the chance, they sure would eat them once dead. Joseph Garcia, at the ripe old age of 9, has clearly learned the difference between fact and truth in poetry. His imagery conveys the truth of his story. Joseph is the brother of Jubilee and Nicole Poulain Garcia. He enjoys reading and writing, particularly adventure stories concerning superheroes and strange villains. This is his first published poem.
The Victim of the Vulture
By Joseph Garcia
The vulture soars As the lion roars The vulture kills As lion blood spills The vulture looks down Seeing lion’s frown As there it lay The vulture’s prey. It eats from its carcass And all the lion sees Is darkness.
