To the tiny
Grey mouse,
I put out grain
For you.
It is not poison
For I don’t mind—
Sharing life
With you.
Here’s part of a blanket
For a warm bed—
The Nights are
Growing cold.
But please eat your grain
And not nibble my food—
Little one
We both must live…

If Curiosity
offed the cat, it could
also be fatal to non-felines.
Lured by the look lurking
in your eye, I wish that
your smile would stop
murdering me.

Aquamarine frock with sparkly lace,
Displayed to be cherished,envied and admired,
But those with empty pockets, too stared,
And the little eyes silently cried.
Like a Closet Alcoholic
I love you, but
I don't want anyone
to know.
Especially you.
you cannot hide
the redolence of
love and musk
no matter what
sooner or later
the world will
come to know !
That was sooooo sweet, so you, Pen. Loved it! :thumbs_upQuote:

To the cracked concrete steps
Where they took pity on us
Because we were young
And so, so lost
But,
Hand in hand,
We were not alone

U do have a hand for haikus, lady! This is beautiful!Quote:

Aw, Kiz Paws, thanks for this:
<<Lured by the look lurking" grabbed me. Love it, Aunty! >>
but your auntie is addicted to alliteration!
Here is a poem so small
you went right by
without noticing it!
In the cold we stood
Eyes in contact
Lips blue
Waiting
For something
The slightest movement
To signal our frozen thought
this is simply beautiful !Quote:
