Ibex in a Parking Lot Poem

By Pamela Storch

Ibex in a parking lot,

Jumped on a nearby car,

Across from Dead Sea deserts,

People watching from afar,


It seems it could not reach the trees,

The leaves are better there,

And so a car was perfect,

If you rent a car, beware!


There must be hoof insurance,

For this rare endangered breed,

If renting in Ein Gedi,

Full insurance do you need,


I hope that it enjoyed the meal,

As tourists’ eyes grew wide,

But next time in Ein Gedi,

Don't park by the trees outside.
