AN ALLITERATIVE QUATRAIN

 could centralised cardiographic cascade competitively  colorize complaisant casement

from flavourful facultative  fiendish fission find  fortuitousness favor 

ruling : restively rhythmic reading  reflectorise restorative respite


shrewdly  sidearm saddleback spat   submerse  scatter  sycophantic  saporous sioux spirits  sextant

Nilgiri Tahr

Sure-footed on rugged hill
Likes life on mountain range
Rolling grassland fits the bill
Short horns reveal their age
Ovines in endangered stage

Males change from Brown, grey to black
Deft climbers blend with rock
Bristly manes, white saddleback
Female has agile walk
Dusky females never baulk

Feeds on various grass, leaves
Spots danger to snort, run
Predators - tigers, dholes, wolves
Humans poach, shoot for fun
Human deeds have their life done
