I was running in the forest, My paws light on the ground, I made not a sound, Everyone knew, But today there was something new. Arose from behind me, I turned with a scowl, But all that I saw was a friendly night owl. I turned back around, Only to see a figure taller than me, A human, it is as clear as can be, A human is standing in front of me. I turned tail and ran, So did the man, He ran as fast as he could, But I, the lynx, knew the wood. All humans are the same, They play the same game. They want my fur for fancy coats, But why not take from the goats? I, the lynx, got away, For me a lucky day, The day I got away.
