A Woman’s Animal instinct :

Just as a lioness has a pride,

A group of females

Strategizes and hunts with,

for life

Female , Homo sapiens

Takes pride in having friends

She can both

console or confide in

Just as a tiger,

has contrasting stripes

A expecting mother,

forms variating stretch marks

With every kick to her rib

The added pregnancy weight

Forms spots of cellulite

On the back of her thighs

just as a rusted spotted cat

feels at home up a tree,

agile as can be

Like a snow leopard has widened paws

To trek in the snow,

So does a pregnant woman’s feet,

The more she shows

A cheetah will cup her cub in her mouth,

just as a mother,

would cup her child’s hand

There is no loud roar,

INSTEAD

a soft purr of a cougar

Like the pure instinct

To blow,

a dandelion to make

A wish-

Freely floating in breeze

A female, cougar will tease

A younger man

He is so desperate to please

Women,

are the hyerarchiy

of the animal kingdom

Our needs demand to be met
