Giraffe.
Tower walking.
Exquisite designs intertwine.
Finds tenderness behind the thorns.
Grace.

very good! I like the visions that accompany your lines and as I know some little bit about giraffes; I know that they use their long tongues to get at a favored, tender fruit hidden by thorns. The Tower walking is an obvious reference to their height and the exquisite designs pointing to their beauty! Surely no one can watch a giraffe walk or run without commenting on its' grace! Very well done! ~ Geez.

Thanks Geez -- Giraffe is the favourite animal of one of my sons. We fed them on a trip to the Phoenix Zoo one time. Total thrill

Oh and "intertwine" references how they cross and rub necks to show affection to each other.
