Amazonas

The sun's rays fall feebly at best
Upon the jungle lagoon
Over the canopy, the evening mist attests
Darkness will be coming soon

A pair of macaw settle in their nest
So elegantly formed, so well-dressed

Shades of blue
And yellow too
Along with the deepest maroon

We too as nature's guest
All have gone to rest
But the jaguar and the moon

Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, USA
