    1. In the woods
      there she stood
      helpless as it seemed
      she looks so scared
      she looks so fierce
      the life of her child
      was which she worried
      she became so strong
      she became so wild
      but nothing could make the little deer smile
      eyes showed the pain she had
      limbs showed the wounds she had
      the roar of the tiger
      is what she feared
      from a far came an additional roar
      which made the mother’s heart go sore
      she looked at the trees
      and then looked at the flowers
      saying this she closed her eyes
      this is how i bid goodbye
      dear child you go far away
      have some fun and live your days
      no matter how bad it looks
      this woodland is your only roof
      during the day u see the sun
      the race for life has just begun
      don’t be swift n slow in the run
      cause what’s done can’t be undone
      at night you see the stars
      see the flowers n see the scars
      the chirping birds will make you relax
      the ducks will help u sleep with quacks
      within a moment the baby ran away
      that’s when the mother passed away
      this is how a day ends in the woods
      but still they continue their livelihood.

    Thank you very much for sharing your poem with me and, for submitting it for consideration as Featured Poem of the Month for July.  I was surprised, as I read your poem, to discover “she” was a mother deer anxious for her beautiful baby.  You display a lovely connection to nature and to living creatures, which comes through in your words and lines and message.  Again, thank you for sharing, Susan
