Through The Mud Clearly

The cat stealthily creeps through the backyard jungle searching for her prey. She stops often. Perhaps to sniff the air for the scent of predators; or humans. Once satisfied there is no threat; she continues her pursuit. Suddenly she stops. A great hunter meow is heard throughout the ever changing tundra. The birds stop singing...there is danger afoot! The cat approaches the barrier fence and hunches down...silently observing her next meal. She stares. She stares some more. Her tail is twitching with anticipation. She continues to stare. She falls asleep.
