Hello world!  Today’s Blog Poetry Slam topic is animals.  So get to writing away in the comments.  My blog poetry slams have been cricket-filled lately, please come keep it company.  The rules are simple, write a poem in the comments, or use a poem you already have, related to the topic.  Your poem can be silly or serious, short or long, or even a haiku.  Happy writing!

here’s mine:

How did a regal lioness give birth to a lamb
I never did  quite fit in with her pride
And I’ve been trying so hard to make her proud ever since
But I never quite could hack it as her cub
Gentle natures are mistaken for weak…
So even in a den of lions I was the black sheep….
