Deadly Hunter...........

Cat in garden raises a paw
To sharpen up her deadly claw.
She does not know her claws are gone
as she listens to the Robins song.
She crouches down.......a panther now
"Watch me hunt .....I'll show you how"
She hides behind a bush to wait,
for a moment tempting fate.
Wiggling her rear she prepares to spring
unseen by the birds who sing.
One more moment......maybe three.
Oops!!! the birds flew to the tree.
Foiled once more the hunter stops
Cleans her tail and licks her chops.
She never did intend to kill.
She had her lunch and ate her fill.
At least that's what her story's now
She just wanted to show us how.
In case the time should ever come
When the hunt must be more than fun.
