The Tiger's Eyes

A tiger’s eyes,

In the pale moon light,

A tiger’s eyes,

Shining big and bright.

The Indian Jungle,

Dense and dark,

Life brimming throughout,

The perfect prey.

A flash,

A radiant second,

The penultimate pulsing form pounces,

Fantasy in motion.

All you can see,

Before it ends,

Are the eyes,

The tiger’s eyes.
