Predator In The House
While the Home mistress deftly slept
Through the kitchen the intruder crept
A litter box placed against the wall
Said no guard dog would he befall
Across the hall without a sound
In the living room he moved around
A TV, jewels and video machine?
No interest to him did they bring
His interest lied with what’s upstairs,
With smooth soft skin and silky hair
Deftly he moved up the stairs
Ever so quietly he moved with care
Up the stairs and down the hall
No sound was heard, no sound at all
The bathroom light filled the corridor
And shown ahead the bedroom door
Like a shadow moving in the night
His pray now lay with in his sight
She did not see him standing there
He move in and sniffed her auburn hair
Then he touched her skin and she awoke
She turned in fright and then she spoke
You scarred the crap right out of me
Stupid cat, its outside you'll be©

Thanks Lyrickkw and sportgames, I wrote this from an ideal that popped into my head for a fun poem. thanks to both of you for reading and stopping by. You might like some of my other fun poems like Truth of My Demise, and Mcfilbert J. Mcgholahey. My more serious poems are the odes, Like a Blueberry and so forth. Thanks again
Wow. What a poem. I was so enthralled that when i got to the last line i had to go back and read it again. It could easily have been the real thing, all the while reading i was thinking of all those little children that have been stolen in the night. Good job. Well done.

Thanks very much d. it was fun writing and making it suspenseful up to the end. Glad you enjoyed it, and your great comment.
Suspenseful and with a great twist at the end. I could never think of something like this...my mind simply doesn't work that way. Impressive.
