Cheetah

Creeping up stealthily,
cushioned claws
cautiously gain ground.
Claws retract, amber eyes
covet the prey,
concentration heightens and the
chase begins.

this is really nice. Wish I had seen it earlier to let you know not all the lines had the six needed syllables.

That's kind of you,Andrea but where does it state 6 syllables out of interest? It wasn't on the PS definition? ..... Ah!! Not under PS definitions but in Joseph's contest rules! Whoops!
