Cheetah



In the golden savannah, where wildness thrives,
A sleek predator with swiftness arrives.
Born for the chase, adorned with spots so fine,
The graceful cheetah, pride of the feline.

A creature of speed and effortless grace,
With limbs that propel through vast, open space.
Bodies designed for pursuit and for flight,
Blurring the boundary between day and night.

With fiery eyes, keen vision takes hold,
Behold a sprinter, swift, agile, and bold.
Muscles stretch and flex with each mighty leap,
Fleet-footed sprinter, forever on keep.

In silent whispers, they blend with the brush,
Whisking through grasses, a blur in the hush.
Elegant creature, mother of the plain,
Nurturing cubs, her eternal domain.

Their spots dance like flames upon golden fur,
Mirroring shadows of a world in a blur.
Captivating beauty, unmatched in stride,
Poised to pounce on the game with swiftness and pride.

Every movement as lithe as rolling thunder,
As cheetah strides through nature's plunder.
A symphony of speed, a melody in motion,
Behold the spirit of the wild’s devotion.
