Cool! I can imagine this "striped lightning" and "flash" echoes the "lightning" which emphasizes the speed of that striped creature. I think your poem rivals William Blake's tiger poem! Best wishes in the contest!

Great presentation in words and putting the tiger upfront on a black background. Using "striped lightning to describe this powerful animal known for speed is perfect.
Wishing you good luck in the contest.
Best wishes,
Mary

Wow. I love your words "striped lightening." So very effective in this short poem. Evokes not just speed, but danger with no warning. Great job. Good luck in the contest.

I was counting your syllables before I realized this wasn't meant to be a haiku. LOL. You did a great job with your eight words. I like the way that you describe a tiger as "striped lightning" "in a flash." Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

"Striped lightning" is an action-packed description of a tiger that immediately gives your poem a sense of movement. Starting with description and working up to the simple noun "Tiger!" gives the impression of someone being awed by what they see, then remembering to shout a warning. The visual you chose highlighted your poem nicely.

I love this. In a few words and with a high contrast presentation you infused energy into this submission. I feel like that tiger was heading straight for me.

Tiger is ready for an attack when he flies through the air with speed. Among the largest species of cats in the world, tigers are powerful hunters with sharp teeth, strong jaws and agile bodies.

The tiger is a beautiful animal to look at. But I do not want to be close to them if they're hungry, because I am sure that he wouldn't hesitate to make me a meal. Patricia.
