Analysis of The Tiger
Yatin Thota 2008 (Hyderabad)
Hiding in the shadows,
He lurks onto prey
He'll only pounce into meadows,
When he isn't faraway
He is a silent killer
His fur, a golden yellow
His tail is as long as a pillar
And no! His roar ain't mellow
He can't be matched in stealth
So, beware him in the grass
Don't kill him for your wealth
