A lion. Magnificent is she.
A lion. Sleeping peacefully.
A lion. Strong and sleek and free.
A lion. Wonderful to see.

A lion. A terrifying pierce.
A lion. Fast and tough and fierce.
A lion. Someone feared by all.
A lion. Feasting on her haul.

A lion. Golden coat a gleam.
A lion. Drinking from a stream.
A lion. Knows no enemy.
A lion. Queen of beasts is she.
