Softly tread with
steps undaunted,
glancing through tormented
lands;
Steadfastly, we clutch to
bosom ...visions of such
high demands;
Innocence replaced with
wisdom swiftly gained for
preservation;
Haunted looks seek out
the hunter...
prowling with a Panther's
pad;
Softly tread those well-worn
pathways
steadfastly, not looking back;
Wisdom gained, is wise tomorrow...
hunter hunted....
no going back.

There is something almost sinister about the movements of any large cat, it must be the preditor in their nature that brings a chill...but as always, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder and to me this magnificent animal personifies the fight for survival of both man and beast. Thank you for taking time to comment, as always it is appreciated
