Patreon Request 10: The Life of a Sphinx

 If you would like to support me and my work become a patron of my Patreon. Don't forget to buy my poetry book "Living Day by Day: A Collection of Poems" on Amazon and leave a review.

    Perfectly perched on the rust color sand, lays a Sphinx. Its claws trim, but paws are ready to bat away any annoyance. Its large eyes track anyone who dares to come close. The Sphinx's tail flutters back and forth. Its' skin smooth by billions of grains of sand. A proud smirk graces the Sphinx's face taunting those beneath it. There are days when foolish humans dare to challenge the Sphinx. Unchecked arrogance is their fault, leaving only bones behind. With a laugh, the Sphinx concludes its day with a purr of satisfaction. Life is a joy when you're a Sphinx. End.
