I am an Amimal

I am a mighty tiger
Devouring ignorance
I am a wise owl
Seeking knowledge
I am a cheetah
racing to his destiny
I am cunning as a fox
Stong as a ox
Yet I choose
the humility of a dove
Seeking like a hungry dog searches for
Food is how I search for that
"Somebody special"
I am cooler than a polar bear..but
Hotter than a camel on the hottest day in the
Sahara,
I am an animal.

The author's comments:
Everyone, well maybe not everyone, thinks about what animal he/she would be if he/she were indeed an animal. Well, one day I thought about this and it inspired to write a poem, so I did.
