''Death of a Kitten''
I recall the day that I brought h e r home,
six weeks old and a ball of spotted fur;
all around the house that day she did roam,
at times- she ran so fast she was a blur.
Then, she would c r a w l upon my knee to purr,
oh, such a murmuring tranquility;
that little s o u l was all fragility,
I came home- to find my little girl dead.
will miss her sweet s o f t personality,
I buried her- under my roses red.
