Oh! To Be an Ocelot

Oh! to be an Ocelot,
Is what I would like to be
Pretty, tight and taut
An Ocelot, that is me !!


Tawny colored, black of spot
Lying in the jungle green
I am a handsome Ocelot
Pretty eyes and body lean

Quick as light on padded paw
Silent stalk, so disguised
In my world I am the law
My attack a sure surprise

Oh! to be an Ocelot
A king inside my world
Be careful, or be caught
When my fury is unfurled

A pet of Dali I could never be
My feline features handsome
Inside my jungle, roaming free
me, a lithesome kitty bantam
