Devotion is a two-way street
As many lions know,
The bonds they share are hard to beat
As through their lives they go.
The lion cub begins to see
A mother's love is pure,
And who of us could disagree
When that cub knows for sure?
He nestles close next to her side
As if without a qualm,
Beneath her chin then to abide
With thoughts of peace, not harm.
And she in turn has no concern
As they rest there entwined,
And so from this, we all can learn
And gently bring to mind.
For life is not a constant fight,
For each heart needs to give,
To gain a measure of insight
Of wisdom how to live.
And Nature offers wise advice,
Examples how to share,
Beyond God's birds of paradise
And creatures here and there.
Denis Martindale. August 2021.
This poem is about the magnificent painting
Devotion II by wildlife artist Stephen Gayford.
