Tiger tiger the light force King
\nFully grounded and able to bring
\nA genuine spirit to all who sees
\nHis vertical stripes among the trees<\/p>\n
A solitary fellow whose rank is high
\nWith a primacy that does apply
\nA supremacy that one can feel
\nbeyond compare and very real<\/p>\n
There was a time when his range was far
\nBut habitat loss and the poachers are
\nTaking their toll on Panthera too
\nAs the wild are tamed and only
\nA few<\/p>\n
Are left to wander and to outshine
\na champion on the front line
\nEmbracing its role to guarantee
\nTo all the things it wants to be<\/p>\n
Today is tiger day I hear
\nThe guy with the stripes that so many fear
\nHe is part of the whole yet walks alone
\nHis solidarity is his own<\/p>\n
A lot of respect it comes his way
\nHe is self sufficient for others pay
\nAttention when he ambles by
\norganised and And how he can fly<\/p>\n
Ungulates and bovids run
\nFor he makes out he is the sun
\nThe Shade the shadow
\nThe moon the rain
\nThe migrant with it all to gain<\/p>\n
He’s methodical and rules supreme
\nHe is harmony and can soon redeem
\nHimself for his undertakings are
\nPerfect really for he is a star<\/p>\n
Limitless energy when he goes
\nA Evanescence I do suppose
\nHis camouflage is a perfect sense
\nIn the forest dark or the grasses dense<\/p>\n
Everyday is his day In fact
\nWhen he lays himself down
\nHe can so react
\nTo the slightest sound and movement
\nHe
\nIs up like the lark
\nAnd into a tree<\/p>\n
Tiger tiger the spirit fire
\nSustained action
\nAn obsessive pyre
\nThe heat he builds on
\nAll can know
\nWhen he’s on the prowl
\nThey had better go<\/p>\n
His destiny well who can say
\nIt’s threatened I think
\nThe cause today
\nIs poaching the vile ones
\nPaid to be
\nOgres of adversity<\/p>\n
The Chinese market
\nIs growing fast
\nTraditional Medicines die
\nIs cast
\nThey want his bones
\nHis whiskers too
\nThey want his penis
\nYes they do<\/p>\n
Quackery drives these markets high
\nA violence that does underlie
\nThe brutal and the bellicose
\nFor the fellow that’s so grandiose
\nWith prices steady year on year
\nThe Tigers trails they have to fear
\nThe future is apparently
\nUnstable for their truancy<\/p>\n
Well paid rogues
\nWith corruption rife
\nA band of brigands
\nEach with a knife
\nCan cut him down
\nAnd make him see
\nThat a tiger has no place to be<\/p>\n
The natural world
\nIs failing fast
\nAs the goddess sits on high
\nAghast
\nAs the greatest power t hat ever was
\nIs murdered really just because
\nThe human mind has a wickedness
\nWhich is why wild souls
\nFeel so much stress<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
