Of night scopes made by man's design,

I think this my favorite so far. It just rolled off my tongue as I spoke your words. Having four of my own, I think you are talking about your cat. Tell me if I'm wrong. ~ Sara

I like the flow and the way the rhyming makes it sound. Truly there is thrill in the hunt.

Good job Greenwolfe. I love the gentle irony of the fierce hunter affectionately purring in your lap. My cat Zoe and I aren't so far different. He might mount a mole above the mantel and I might choose a Big Mac box for my trophy.

I like this poem, it's not as good as 'Sorry', so I'll give it an 8. Ki o tsukete kudasai! (Please take care!)

In between the perfectly rhyming lines lies the wonderful philosophy of nature’s constant hunting process. A big cat as he pictures it, the poet does not try to flee or escape. Instead he tames the thoughts about it and keeps beside him friendly…a very good poem…very good construction technique…10/10

The poem has a natural rhythm to it and the rhymes fit right in. Very well constructed. It says a lot about nature and ourselves. It brings the out-of-doors into the den, pre-historic into the historic, untame world into the 'tame' world. It has a lot of hidden meaning which I like about poems and can provoke a lot of thought and discussion.

It is perfectly read, you successfully used 'the Womanly rhyme', and causes also beautiful associations, Wolfey. Tsira
