Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 Liger

I am a liger, offspring from

My tiger Mom and lion Dad.

Such parenting let me become

The world's largest cat to be had.

Over one thousand pounds I weigh.

A length of twelve feet I extend.

I have Mom's stripes which I display.

I have Dad's roar which I do send.

Like Mom, I'm in water a lot.

Like Dad, I tend to socialize.

Very strong leg muscles I've got,

And run quite fast for my large size.

Product of planned parenthood, true,

Cuz Mom and Dad met in a zoo.
