Poem on metamorphosis

Metamorphosis
Morphing from form to form
Staying as a human
Is really not the norm
The busy-tailed squirrel
Foraging for food
Digging the soil around him
Looking for something good
Powers is the syntax
To see what you can do
Not knowing your abilities
Makes you look like a fool
Small untamed feline
That�s what the wildcat is
But don�t mess with this animal
Or your head will be on his dish
The wary white wolf
Biting with its teeth
He eats anything he finds
Be it chicken lamb or beef
The aquatic turtle
Swimming in the seas
He�ll bring you to the next shore
For just a little fee
The little black jackdaw
Flying here and there
It�s small wings and blue eyes
With his skin which is so fair
The quick footed cheetah
Sprinting all around
To all four directions
Even up and down
The wisest bird of prey
That is the owl�s name
Knowing just everything
That�s where it got its fame
Vicious stealthy hyena
Walking with a laugh
But don�t mess with its claws
Or it�ll claw you into half
The huge bird named Condor
Flying with its wings
Spying the place around him
It may just bring some good thing
The cute burrowing gopher
Just below the ground
Using just a shovel
He can then be found
The slow ponderous sloth
Working not so fast
Judging him on this
Is really too unjust
The silent basilisk
Magical beast of lore
Paralysis and Stupidity
That�s what your in for
The mighty grizzly bear
Blocking the passageway
If you dare provoke him
Your skin will turn to fray
Bonding has more rapport
With the spirit within you
Trying to force him out
Your being quite a fool
The delicate nightingale
Singing a melodious song
No one will want attack him
Even the huge king kong
Largest of land animals
That�s what the elephant is
Yanking you with his trunk
Don�t play with the might of his
Transmorph quickens morphing
Morphing from form to form
No need to turn back human
It is now not the norm
The vicious wolverine
Burrowing nine levels deep
With just a swipe of his claws
Your brain is his to keep
The powerful stealthy jaguar
Quick on the feet
With just a single maul
No one is too hard to beat
The king of all flighted birds
The eagle that is him
With the nightsight skill
The dark is not so dim
Powerful and primate Gorilla
He can powerfully pound
However there is one condition
The enemy must be bound
Awesome mythical Icewyrm
Imbued with magical powers
If it really wants to
It can freeze two towers
Obtaining a greater affinity
With an animal spirit
Your endurance drain is lessened
This is the skill�s merit
The cousin of the dragons
That is what the wyvern is called
But they won�t know his powers
Until they are mauled
Truemorph of transcendant
The greatest skill of all
Morphing instantaneously
Giving a clarion call
Penned by my hand on the 1st of Lupar, in the year 364 AF.
