Write a poem featuring the cat family, whether big or small.
Tiger
I alone am striped…
powerful, agile body
hunts alone at night…
within my territory,
I wander – still endangered.

About Me
- bridgeanna
- Although I grew up in Montana, I currently live in the wonderful Pacific Northwest and love it! I was greatly influenced by my great grandparents, and I treasure my Irish heritage. I taught middle school for 11 years. Although I was out of the classroom for a year, I returned to teach high school Language Arts online. I love middle and high school kids and teaching, but I hate the politics involved. I believe that every day is a gift to be savored and cherished... I believe there is still much to learn... I believe in the power of love to heal... I believe in always doing our best to serve others... I believe there is magic all around us - "Some things have to be believed to be seen."... I believe "all things are possible" to those who believe they are... I believe we are called to love one another and be understanding for we can never be sure of another's struggles until we have walked a mile in his/her shoes... I believe peace is possible; apathy is not an option... and most of all, I believe in LOVE!
