Max the Cat

Luminous green eyes
sleek black fur
black like ashes and the night sky
you look like a panther yet act like a dog.
Your wide as a football
big and soft as a pillow.

up all night prowling the street
loving the smells and faces outside
the warmth of the heater
the comfy chairs
your like a wolf hunting in the night
your strong and sturdy as steel
yet cuddly as a teddybear

your bravery is like a lion
and friendly as a playful pup
you think you own the streets
and are the boss of all dogs.
Yet you're my cat Max.
