tigress queen
slithers through moonglow
enthralled by lush wetland’s view

feline eyes guard trails
as gentle roar warms pack’s night
cuddling her cubs with ardor

yet ready to slay huntsmen
when nature’s fairness,   defied

I wouldn't want that huntsman leaving orphaned cubs; good luck to her.

Wonderful job Nette. Love the beautiful pic. So perfect for this piece. Tigers are so regal and I hate the way they are hunted for their beautiful skin. Love this. God Bless, JB
