Lion Pride

Lion Pride My shoulders drop from side to side Hunting with my pride we wait and see Ready to pounce on the opportunity Untamed instinct the moon we see Clouds will cover advantage will fall Teeth are sharp claws retracted The breeze is blowing our way We can sense the beast and feast The moment comes the clouds cover The trap is set the beast falls silent The pecking order begins the night Sunrise gentle comes splitting trees Beast is gone milk for cubs will flow freely The sacrifice of life brought belly's of meat The cubs will grow strong from the night

Wow what a fantastic write Niall! I can feel the attitude of the pride and the basic life or death necessity of the hunt. Also, I love the line; 'Sunrise gentle comes splitting tress.' Just awesome. The imagery, flow, rhythm and rhyme of your poem is beautiful :)
