On the garden wall in the moonlight
- you sit

Surveying the world you listened
  - and waited 

You body quite still and so quiet
- so fit

Your senses alert - missing nothing
- so calculated!

So quiet the night - yet you heard it
- your prey!

You waited one moment - then pounced
- 'twas over 

With that creature you'd gloat (before eating!)
- and play!

Appetite satisfied - you're back on the wall
- to recover

You might cat-nap - but still stay alert
- all night long

Not a sound or a movement you'll make
  - all alone 

With the first sign of man making movement
- you're gone!

Where you know you'll be pampered and cuddled
- at home!

.....ooOOoo.....
