Edward Ibeh Poet Verse

Notes About The Poem

Panther

I
never thought
I
looked like
any sort
of animal.
I
never expected
to be
attached
to one,
but I've once 
been told
I had
a rather distinctive
panther-like gait,
so I suppose...
that is my...
"spirit animal"?

Hey, I'll take it!
No worries.
It just so happens...
I
love
panthers!

Aditi Mishra June 8, 2020 at 8:50 AM This is such a witty take on spirit animals :D True, it does create confusion in the beginning. Congratulations on choosing one and on your win Edward :) Edward Ibeh June 8, 2020 at 8:57 AM Thank you very much, Aditi:-) Blessings to you, my friend.
