Smooth curves
Slim lines
Soft
But poised
A spring coiled
Compact power
Ears sharp
Alert triangles
Tents intent
On picking up
The smallest sign
Of prey to find
Sleek fur
Jet black
Or mottled tabby
Friendly, content
Or raised, defensive
Eyes,
Unique
Guarded, they survey
Then, with time,
Playful and bright
The form, whole
As one
The Cat
Complete
