Tiger

Tiger

each stripe is different

every coat, unique

awesome camouflage 

at nature`s boutique

moving through jungle

in silent stealth mode

seeking his next meal

as his bright eyes glowed

hardly visible

to the naked eye

this tiger`s walking

confident and sly

this majestic king

so endangered there

it`s up to us to help

save him, we must care

oh tiger tiger

for this is your hour

a symbol of freedom

such grace and power

There is a need to save these wonderful creatures

Inspired by a watercolour painted by Olechka01 found on DeviantArt

Hi Lissie Bull, I agree with Nardine in that I really love everything about this whole presentation (the picture as well)  You've captured all the power and nobility of the Tiger and brought home the Tigers plight as well....I can see this hanging in a "Save the Tigers" venue somewhere,  .......great write.....for a noble cause....I loved it......tony
