Lynx Poem by (kc) ripper

I once was
Highly prized,
Almost extinct
I tell no lies.
Reindeer, Rabbit,
Bird, fish, goat, sheep,
That I like to
Creep up on
Leap upon
Eat and then sleep.
I resemble a large cat,
Bar my bow tie, short tail
And tufts of hair
Upon my ears.

A litter of kittens
Once a year
Two, three or four.
I teach them to
Walk, talk, hunt
And much more.
Come next spring
They’ll be gone,
Fiend for themselves
All alone.

As for me
Life goes on
Hunting, mating
Running freely
On and on.
