Lets take a journey back, back in time, back in time to twelve million years ago; and high in the Asian Steppes lets climb, up thirteen hundred feet to cliffs narrow. There we will find the Pallas cat unchanged, this solitary creature still exists; but because of man this cats life has changed, and though illegal fur hunting still persists. Some think these wild cats will make nice pets, this is crazy to even consider; killing, capturing and now survival- threats, this stupidity leads me to anger. Oh, leave this beautiful creature in peace, yes, admire but please- the hunting must cease. __________________________ October 28, 2017 Poetry/Sonnet/The Cat Time Forgot Copyright Protected, ID 17-9532-90-0 All Rights Reserved.

A powerful write BW. I saw two gorgeous Bobcats where I work about two months ago. The Pallas cat is a a beautiful small cat but I find their circular eyes rather unsettling.

Constance, this is a wonderfully well written poem my friend! These cats are truly a special breed! I've seen a special on them at one time, it was fascinating, they are beautiful, but now are in peril (I believe)! I hate to think they are hunted! What a special write about these grandiose beings, such an awesome sonnet, Great Work!!
