CREATIONS KISS
It's only a mouse
The cat brought in
Only a mouse
It couldn't win
It's only a mouse
Thats what they say
Only a mouseΒ
It's had its day
So why do I hold it
Close to me
Shed a tear
Say
Sorry
Because it IS a mouse
Not
ONLY
A living breathing soul
With fur so soft and silky
And eyes like tiny coals
But its tiny heart beats hard and fast
And I know this creature will not last
So I stroke it gently
And with grace
I lay it in its resting place
And I cry
Yes, cry
And as I shed my tears
I say a prayer for this mouse
Who died in fear
For this life gone by
For this tiny mouse
For our unseeing eyes
I cry and cry
For why oh why
Do we not see
The beauty ofΒ
Variety
For not
ONLY
Mouse or bird or fish
A miracle of life
Creations kiss
But
Beauty and evil
In this worldΒ
Mix
And so I cry for a world
I cannot fix.

Hello Marion...
Awesome write!
I see so many animals run over and it's so sad...
It's easy to tell when it was an accident and when it was done as a game...
Β People wonder what's wrong with this World?
I wonder if they figured it out yet?
?
Thank you for sharing...
Hugs...

Thankyou Sparrowsong...animals are my weakness, not a day goes by than I'm crying over one of them. They are so at the mercy of man and nature. No paracetamol or taking themselves to A @ E. And my god...they are all so beautiful aren't they. I love my cats but I hate that they kill...hence the verse xx
