Stealthy, in tall grass,
she waits as her hunger growls.
Deer appear. She leaps.

For some reason “Maneater” by Hall & Oates started playing in my head. I hope she gets a good meal and doesn’t fill up on bread.

I love that song! I don’t think tigers eat bread unless they’re deer or gazelle buns. 😀

It’s a wonderful haiku as ever, Rose. Very powerfully written. It makes me realize how tough it is being a tiger, though. When my hunger growls, I go the the refrigerator.
