A King I Once Was

A king I once was in my younger years,

Now I'm just old with memories of peoples fears.

I roamed the land both far and wide,

Never did I need to run and hide.

The land was lush with game of many choices,

Full of promise within their many voices.

Every week I would chose something to snack on,

Because that is how often I ate being a lion.

I lived with a gaggle of gorgeous ladies,

Each one beautiful and with unique personalities.

They brought me a family that has lasted for ages,

But sadly most of them have ended up in cages.

A king I once was with my family in the wild,

Now I just sit here getting stared at by man's visiting child.
