There’s a tiger
Inside of me –
It growls and
Wants to be in control.
But the tiger
Can be intimidating.
It’s not a peaceful
Influencer.
If I want to influence
Peace and kindness
In the people around me,
I need to unleash Pussycat!
There’s a pussycat
Inside of me.
It wants to cuddle and purr
and reach out in love.
There is wisdom
In that purring side of me.
Should I let the
Pussycat rule?

Yes, there’s a pussycat
Inside of me.
She is submissive
And sweet.
Will my tiger
Give in to her?
When is it right to
Let the growler rule?

Do you have a tiger in you?
And a pussycat scratching to get out?
I think we all may be a little of each.
What do you think?
Have a Happy Sunday.
We’ll have church services outdoors again.
It’s a beautiful blue-sky-day.
I’ll post my sermon notes later.
Hugs,
JanBeek

Good morning lovely lady… a beautiful and relatable poem. I believe I have those felines residing within or perhaps they just visit from time to time, lol.
I hope you let ’em come to the fore at just the appropriate times! <3
Some times I do, other times I try to keep the tiger back but she can be forceful, lolol… too funny I love your.
The kitty comes out with a lot as well.
Have a peace-filled Sunday π
