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. vervian….
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
