5 Little OrphansA Poem by Danielle Khairallah
I walk around campus every day
It's only natural that I do it this way But as I walk I bump into young creatures Seemingly parent-less and hungry 1 little kitten, of pure black fur 1 little kitten, of tiger-like texture 1 little kitten, of snow-white fur 1 little kitten, of gray and green mixture 1 little kitten, of tabby-like figure 5 little kittens are in front of my dorms Playing, rolling around in the dirt 5 little kittens are surrounding me Each fighting for a turn on my lap ! Ichi, the strongest of them all, has flashy green eyes and so much affection Twist, the calmest of them all, quietly waits for his turn to come A shy little kitten comes very slowly towards me and attempts a turn as well A hyper little kitten jumps excitedly over my shoulders and hides in my hair 5 little orphan kittens suddenly made me their mom 5 little orphan kittens became my special little friends Taking care of them becomes my favorite pass-time Loving and cuddling them becomes my most affectionate action 5 little orphans...reside in front my dorms They are no longer orphans ! They are a big feline family ! © 2010 Danielle Khairallah |
