Tamed the tiger

A Chapter by Lyn Anderson
"

take out of it what you must

"
Here kitty kitty
thought you tamed
her
brought home a tiger
wanted her to play nice
she gets bored when
her lions
become mice.

A playful, almost mocking piece. I think it is the human need for control that drives us to try to change others, to "tame the tiger", as it were. Though in this, it is not the tiger that changes, but the tamer. Interesting twist.

I find this thought provoking.

Despite the fact that cats like their cream, they really can't tolerate lactose. :)

Short and yet very profound piece...
many thoughts comes to mind here is mine:

~ To tame a wild heart is never an easy task. It takes skills and more importantly it needs love and care. Getting bored is a matter of finding some else to do again. But one thing is for sure, once you've come to love someone(the one you tamed) , that love can't be easily forgotten. It is not something, it is someone's heart. To tame a heart is done also by the heart... you will build a bridge, a certain connection or bond that makes both hearts in one unison. Love is a complex feeling, that can't be easily discarded... very nice piece!

Thank ye sir - I appreciate your analysis.
That was definitely an interesting and creative poem, although I'm not quite sure what i think it means yet. Good job, though!

Its all about the thrill of the chase I say !!

They say you can charm a snake but not tame one. I don't know if that is true or just you are beguiled by lions and tigers...Bravo

There appears to be a theme here and perhaps the slightest whiff of a woman who demands 'service' lol

Thanks. I was dancing around this one all day with all my pieces. Had to write several to find this one.
