The Dog Who Was A Cat, a poem

 24MAY10

The Dog Who Was A Cat 


Her tail is pointing

out as straight as a ruler.

Her front paw is bent.


She is watching and 

still as she focuses on

a nearby squirrel.


She creeps forward like

a jungle lion ready

to pounce on her prey.


The squirrel sees her

and stills, hoping to become

one with the brown bark.


Wary, predator

and prey eye one another

seeing who'll move first.


Moments pass while dog

and squirrel fight a battle

of strength and patience.


The hunt ends as dog

pounces and squirrel escapes

safely up her tree.
