Cat Among The Eagles

So I'm informed that I should post this poem by Pyro and to stop tweaking with it. So I've stopped tweaking. Because it is "already good enough and will you just post it already?" So I am. This poem is for Aquila. Hope you enjoy!

Cat Among The Eagles

An eagle soaring through the azure sky

Watches with sharp talons the mountain walls

She screeches, a loud and lonely piercing cry

And like a thunderbolt she falls

Queen of the heavens she rules supreme

With golden feathers and merciless eyes

Praying on the rabbits far below

She swoops and soars, then plunges, rises, flies

A cat as black as soot with golden eyes

Illuminates the darkness as she prowls

Padding gently through the violet night

Her purr replaced with soft yet menacing growls

Tail swishing back and forth

Prowling through the grass

Hunting down the birds and mice

With eyes that glint like glass

The cat looks up and sees the stars

And shadows flying over head

An aerie of eagles, commanding the skies

The cat longs to join them, and hover instead

So she thinks of the eagles

The strong sinewy wings

The cruel feathered head

The majesty of kings

And she changes her figure

Her body transformed

A shape shifting creature

Her magic performed

To alter her being

To whatever she desires

Aquila Felis joins the eagles

Just as she aspires

Eagle, human, feline, fox

Each shape seems so new

And as Aquila unites with avian comrades

She tumbles laughing through the pristine blue
