Draft- Alusion Poem

[This story is related to Curious George]

I swing the trees with huge curiosity
with only the ground
solid and cold
as my support to catch me if I fall

My surroundings keep me thinking
with all mother nature
balanced and resilient
waiting for me to explore
for that I shall

With my fellow companion
yellow suit and hat
cares for me if I were his own
replacing the trees
and solid ground

Still Adventure fuels me
with wide imagination
so much to discover
for I shall hover beside the trees
metaphorically

Article: Myth: Lascaux

Lascaux is the setting of a complex of caves in southwestern France famous for its Paleolithic cave paintings. The original caves are located near the village of Montignac, in the Dordogne département. They contain some of the best-known Upper Paleolithic art. These paintings are estimated to be 17,300 years old. [1][2] They primarily consist of primitive images of large animals, most of which are known from fossil evidence to have lived in the area at the time. In 1979, Lascaux was added to the UNESCO World Heritage Sites list along with other prehistoric sites in the Vézère valley.[3]
