Lions – take pride!

Famed creature of nobility
You engender respect wherever you prowl
Be it jungle green
Or
Concrete office park
And
Your distinguishing mark ?

Undisputed Head of the Pride
Every member in their place
Mates and cubs alike
And
Your badge of authority?

Fearless hunter
Balance maintainer
Fulfilling your role
With dignified panache
And
Your Royal Seal?

So, then,
What sets you apart from the rest?
And
Marks you as one of the best?

The Mane, of course
For
What would the lion be without his mane?
One sorry pussy cat!
