isaac hammond - The Kangaroo

You always will see me hop
unlike a horse you see gallop
i can take long jumps and leaps
over tree logs and huge garbage heaps

At times i feel like a bird
but when i turn my head and see my siblings
hopping down the gentle-sloped mountains
i just know we're kangaroos
and we're proud of ourselves too
