There they stood, reflecting ...the three of them All wrapped up in their fur coats The tall slim one in black.,a green eyed gem Her long slender legs, trembling..was she scared?
She stares through the bars Her eyes narrowing, turning golden Retreating, she cowers behind the others In this dark corner she feels invisible.
She senses the small family approach As a doll sized hand reaches out The other two approach..united Accepting the childs clumbsy touch.
The tiny child pivots, her eyes questioning Pleading to help these three females The mother turns, tears staining her face The father, unsure what to do next.
Heads lowered, they shuffle away Shoulders hunched over , Two they could manage, But three was too many.
They talk quietly amongst themselves A decision reached, a committment made They approach the jailor And bail out all three.
They provided love and shelter The tall one still scared But not of the tiny hand Of the sweet gentle girl.
Did you guess? My families cats.

You're very good at describing things, Stormy. In free verse imagery is important, and you've done a fine job in this one.
Kudo's for a very good write, but I didn't guess abot the cats, haha...Probably because that was the first thing I saw before reading through the poem. :biggrin:
Much Love, |
