She creeps up slowly
Her spots camouflage
With the tall, dry
Grass of the plain
Of Africa

The Bright Steaming
Blurry sun
Fights with her eyes
But she defeats it
With the dark lines
Underneath her eyes

She’s teaching her
Three newborns
How to hunt
Where to bite
But most importantly
When to attack

She creeps close
Before she attacks
She knows that if
She gets outrun
Her and her babies
Will starve until
Their next meal

She has
Oversized lungs
To help her breath
More oxygen
Her loose hip and
Shoulder joints
Give her extended power
Combined with an elastic
Span that both, arches
UP
and                                                                                                                                     Down

Cheetah Mama
Can only run for
40 seconeds…
She only has 20 seconds
Left on the clock

BAAMM!
A deer’s life
Will effect her family
But
At the same time
It’s feeding a
Mama cheetah and
Her three cubs
