Morning doodle. I feel like it's missing something but adding clouds or other birdies didn't turn out well, so I'll just let it be.

Step back, back, front, side to side.

Penguin

With grace, with loyalty
The penguins every move a waltz
Their life an endless banquet
Though they might waddle from side to side
Crossing their vast kingdom
Not like gentleman and ladies
Be assured
They are the blue-blooded royalty of the farthest south

Take the Tibet tiger from his mountain
Cage him and tame him you might
And still have a mighty beast with ferocious eyes
But try as you might to take these kings from their kingdom
And the magical essence will be lost

For the penguin is not a mere part of the southern pole
He is the organ, useless and nearly lifeless when removed
For he is rooted deep into the icy ground
His ember chest the glow and warmth in the cold
His head is raised towards the sky, touching it, breathing the wind
He is as much a part of the icy waters as the currents

For he is the soul of Antarctica
