The Kitten

The kitten shivers in the cold,
it's body racked with fear,
that far too early, far too soon,
her end is coming near.
A large mother cat comes,
and the kitten tries to hide.
But the cat has not come to hurt,
the cat has come to guide.
She wraps herself around the poor kitten,
And licks the kitten dry.
And she promises the kitten,
that she wont let it die.
The kitten smiles slightly,
and licks the mother cats face,
and thanks God for the cat,
and thanks Him for His Grace.
The mother cat looks at the kitten,
and smiles very brightly.
Loves the kitten with all her heart,
and takes care of it daily and nightly.
One day when the kitten is finally grown,
the mother cat says gently,
It's time for you to go on your own.
I've served my purpose the right way.
The kitten gives one final kiss,
to it's adopted mother so dear.
And goes to it's new home,
It now has nothing to fear.

I like it a lot! Nice work!

Thanks! Edit: I could put up a preview of my book 'Injustice' if you want.

Here's another poem. It's not as good as the other one but it might be good enough anyway.

Unity
As I look at the stars,
those twinkling lights above,
They make me think of a certain
creature,
they make me think of a dove.
For a dove is very graceful,
it's wings in perfect sync,
it is even a great symbol,
it is a symbol for peace.
Everything has a purpose,
whether it be great or small,
All things shall fulfill it,
We are in unity one and all.

These are really good, especially "Unity." The descriptiveness is great! I'd love to read a preview of Injustice, too.

Well i need to retitle it. and it's stuck so i might not finish it.
