Notes About The Poem

EAGLE AND KITTEN

Back from failed hunt she
sees young cat at rest
in nest with eaglets.
First lethal fears rouse
cat's instinct to jump ~
she learns eagles fly.

Oh my, the eagle does look shocked, I'd be too, yes like David below says, only the strong survive, or survival of the fittest, I think they say! Her plight in flight, okay I'll quit while i'm ahead (lol) Lovely written, CayCay

The eagle is magnificent like your poem. We don't have them in Malta. Best for a win.
