Run Like the Wind

Run like wind,
My dear little friend.
For trees fall like divers
To the very end.
Leap through the rocks
Of steep, rough terrain.
For feral creatures strive
To bring you great pain.
Little numbat,
I hope you soon see,
The marble of bright blood
Now trickles down thee.
Run like the wind,
You must find a way,
And your stripes will burn black
To the final day.
