Premium MemberAn Ode to Hunting Dogs

The rolling, hollow, baying sounds cascading from the fen,
'cause there's a bobcat up a tree and the dogs are loose again.
The cat suddenly settles, and the hunting pack goes quiet.
A man whistles to call them, but these rowdy dogs won't buy it.

Like men in a private club, they quietly wait by the tree.
The cat observes

Premium MemberEli Elf Loves His Bobcat Pet

Eli snuggled up to his sweet winter snow pet
Squishing Mr. Bobcat as close as he could get
This day is damp said Bob, my fur is all wet
Mama won’t let you in the house though, that is my bet.
We can stay here and snuggle, so don’t you fret.
You are my favorite person, my best friend, my

Premium MemberJousting On a Bobcat

You really haven’t lived life fully
Until you’ve raced down a mountain
In the rain
On a muddy, slippery trail
In a Bobcat side-by-side utility vehicle
With a twenty foot long section of twelve inch culvert
Teetering precariously on the vehicle
Trying to hold it under one arm
While attempting to steer with the other
So as to keep the Man
With the quarter million

Premium MemberForever Changed

Other people’s nightmares and night terrors do not interest me
Or persuade, coax or encourage me to have my own.
I refuse to acknowledge their existence.
Others tell me cryptic tales, sharing morbid woes.
I slumber as peacefully as a newborn colt
Dreaming of the good life
A bobcat’s scream changes me forever

Then, it slowly walked

Premium MemberThoughts of a Bobcat

What if a two-hundred-pound bobcat would
jump into my red Lincoln this morning?
I was thinking about this as I left my driveway.
What if she got stuck in the passenger window
because my window was up almost to the top?

Would I unroll the window, hoping she would roll out onto the pavement, probably killing her?
Or would I keep

Premium MemberHeart Stopping Scream

Heart stopping scream.
Permeates the woods.
A woman being murdered.

I grab my flashlight.
I wouldn’t do that if I were you.
I glare at my friend.

A woman is being killed.
I am going to save her.
That was a bobcat, she says.

I come right back to the deck.
There are no more screams
But yips of coyotes.

Premium MemberHansel and Gretel My Pet Lynxes

You can be a turtle, a deer, a buffalo, a dog, frog or a sphynx,
But you never know true love until you have fallen for a lynx.
I have a pair of them, and they adore me upside down and inside out.
They give me joy and companionship; they truly make me shout!

You may refer to them

Premium MemberMy Hair Stood On End

it came from my left
my hair stood on end
a woman being murdered?
raped and murdered?
my heart was beating faster now
the woods have never looked this dark
I am horrified
mountain lion my friend tells me later
no I argue
It sounded like a woman being raped and murdered
exactly he said, smiling

Premium MemberInto the Woods To Save Another

I ceased to be me when I heard the young one’s screams.
They were coming from the woods, between my two streams.
Her shrieking was terrifyingly real, not like on fantasy TV.
It felt like a young woman was being murdered 
which was good enough for me.

I ran for our big floodlight, without thinking about myself at all.
Into
