pounce

by Emily Davidson

the cat
is sly and stealthy
her eyes on every
possible predator
she is always on the defense
behind her meditative serenity

take something
that belongs to a cat
and she will not howl
or plead for it back
she will simply put out her claws
and pounce

yes she will -- cat's are just that way -- a lesson in it for us all :)

I love cats. Some people tell me they hate cats, and I think they are just jealous of the cats superiority over them. :)
