A Black Panther

A Black Panther

A Poem by Eric Cox

Within a misty jungle of green
a mysterious feline can be seen
a lone black panther stalks her prey
silent and deadly beneath skies of grey
her bright green eyes seem to shine
a beautiful and graceful feline
the heart of a hunter beats within
she kills only for food unlike men
she takes down her prey and feasts
here she is queen of the beasts
she finds shade near a winding stream
a quick drink then she rests and dreams
she purrs contently as the day moves on
soon the dark of the night will dawn
her life will continue in her jungle home
the beauty of the black panther shall be forever known.

Nice. I can see the black panther slinking about in the jungle. You did a really good job on this. Nice rhyming all the way through. Great job.
