Black Angel

Obsidian fur and amber eyes watch her prey

The pads on her paws make no sound

Pupils dialate and take in every movement

Teeth like the talons of eagles she bears a slight peek of them below her upper lip

Familiar is her job but lizards are her game

Love me is her motto and Gotham is her name 

Crouching to pounce every muscle tightens like a springboard

Her sleek body is made to hunt and kill

The body of a killer and the mind of a predator

The sun glistens off her blackness like an onyx jewel

She is my jewel my treasure my black angel

Wings of tenderness and love from the heart

My heart is hers alone

She comforts me with a swish of her tail and a rub from her head

She is my love my black angel

Wicked little look when I throw her ball

Bounding to catch her toy before it escapes her clutches forever

But she knows I will wave my wand and bring it back to her

Mother to a black angel with a heart of gold

She is my sweet my black angel my soul

I do not particularly like cats, but I understand... they do have a personality, and much of that is gained from their "owners", as if anyone can "own" a cat. Wave my wand and bring it back to her"... tell me, who has trained who?

Thank you so much, Al. I love my little black angel! She's a very smart cat, even fetched like a dog! That's her favorite game! But, you keep up that good work!

Hey Amare, Thanks so much for the 10 on my poem! I love my little kitty so much and I bet she appreciates the 10 as well! There is another picture of her in my pictures folder on here. I also have my other cat, Bama that I will be writing about soon. He's my little old man because he's turning 10 this year. We've been through it all together. But, thanks again for the comment and the rating. :-)
