The Need To Procreate

THE NEED TO PROCREATE ~~~~~~~~~ I walk not alone at night, the stars my companions, guide me to my destination. The moon illuminates my path, lights where I place my feet, along my treacherous way. Along the mountains cliff ledge, a path, leading to my true love. Perfumed air, a hint I'm nearing. Her call, she watches me closing. Be aware, hark, there are others, they seek my attention too. My snow leopard instincts kick in, I roar my confidence, my presence. My lady love purrs a welcome. My genes passed on I roar, my success no longer a contemplation. I move on, a new path I follow.

Fascinates me the lengths wildlife go to, to procreate. They do climb every mountain, and swim every sea. :-)
