Shamrah a Victorian Maiden

Shamrah is a satisfied Victorian maiden
daughter of a prince, was never a wife 
her ebony puma chases potential suitors away

she sits among her gorgeous rose gardens 
wearing her embroidered gold tapestry dress
guarded by two docile leopards

men are usually intimidated by Shamrah
They tiptoe away quietly
not wanting to disturb her menagerie
However, if they disturb the big cats they run screaming.
