The Pouncing Cat

The Pouncing Cat

A Poem by Chip

She raises her head,
She's ready to pounce.
With a jump so silent and sleek,
She's up on my lap.

With her eyes so slim like paper,
She scans the ground with a cunning plan.
Getting ready to grab her meal,
With a pounce like a fox she jumps.

Chasing her prey with such agility,
Her legs stretching like gum.
In fear her prey runs,
But you can never beat the cat.

A suspect a metaphor here, but I could be completely off. Anyway, nice imagery; cats are so very graceful and beautiful, and always a great muse. I like the similies.

Kindest regards and best of luck,
Savannah
