Story Art - Beneath The Acacia Tree

This artwork and story is a tribute to two beautiful white lions, Kato, and lioness, Kenia. Brother and sister, these magnificent white lions grew up happily together until a sudden illness took them both. They were only 6, and Kato went first, and Kenia followed him a week later. I created this artwork to honor their beauty and spirits, and because I like to think of them, together forever, beneath the acacia tree.

Beneath The Acacia Tree, art and prose by Carol Cavalaris

Two white lions
Sleep peacefully
My precious ones
And dream of
Your glory days
Of growing together
In the summer sun
So young and free
Like wild flowers
Beneath the acacia tree.

Your spirit so grand
Fills the clouds and sky
You will always be
A part of the river
And the land.
Growing together
So young and free
Like wild flowers
Beneath the acacia tree
