Journey Through Prehistoric Majesty

In ancient lands of fern and fauna,

Lived a creature, massive in form,

A mighty Brachiosaurus, strong and tall,

Its story begins, a prehistoric dawn.

Gentle giant roaming the plains,

Under the sun and through the rains,

Munching high on tender leaves,

A vegetarian life, it truly believes.

Each day, a quest for food and drink,

Footsteps that make the earth truly shrink,

A long neck reaching for the treetops,

A sight to behold, this creature never stops.

But time brought changes, it faced extinction,

A world once full of life, now a mere mention,

Yet the legacy lives on, of this mighty beast,

In bones and fossils, the memories are released.

So imagine if today, this creature appeared,

Cars and people would be truly weird,

A dinosaur in modern times, what would it say?

Perhaps, "Can I have some trees?" in a gentle way.

A sauropod in the city, can you see?

A tail that could cause a traffic spree,

Yet the awe and wonder, it would bring,

A reminder of a past, where giants took wing.

So let us remember, the Brachiosaurus,

A creature of strength, but a gentle chorus,

Its thunderous footsteps echo through time,

A dinosaur's life, forever sublime.
