Beware the instinctive growl
Moving slow, proud, sure and straight
Of a young lioness on the prowl.
Fearless form! Her jungle gait!
Look! Her beauty, brazen face
Hunting till the sunlight dims.
Wary prey! A smooth tireless pace
Warms the sinews of her limbs.
Roaring sounds! Rampant will!
Hushed by stalking's deadly start,
All pay homage in the still
Revering her primeval art.
Eyes of wonder! Eyes of steel!
Born to rule and sovereign reign,
Mystery cloaks just what they feel
Unchallenged in her vast domain.

Thank you so much Rose Marie for such a thunderous roar of a comment and for putting Lioness in your poem list.
A lioness is the embodiment of physical prowess! She is the unchallenged queen of the forest! There is majesty in her form and urgency in her gait! Her every move is intended on capturing her prey! You have siezed the entire majesty of this steely creature!
