Our take on the prompt: Loving your Pet
“My Furry Friend“
The innocent eyes
The cute expression
I loved your baby cries
And the adult aggression
When I stepped into the home
You came and hugged me
I travel from Paris to Rome
My furry friend, you always loved me with glee!
Are you ready? Post your poem/verse in the comments section below!

This weeks prompt ‘Loving your Pet ‘ was indeed an inspiring prompt for me. Because, being a cat and dog lover l do have stories about them but only animal enthusiasts love to read them. So when I saw the prompt I thought I should write about Sweety, my pet cat and her great loss, a mystery for us. None of us know what happened. The poem is my take on the incident.
Thank you dear Storizen editors for accepting my poem.
Sweety’s Woe
Lathaprem Sakhya
She sat woefully
Her mother had gone away for two days.
Her delivery rooms were ready.
She, herself had chosen the spots
And her mamma had approved,
Arranging the boxes with newspapers
To make them all cosy and comfortable.
But what had she done?
She had trusted her childhood pals
Bamby, the female mini pinscher,
And Ken, the cocker spaniel.
She had played with them, shared food with them,
Slept in-between them until she became big
To find more suitable corners and sunny spots.
The pain was spasmodic, mamma was away
She ran to her foster mom, for succour
Bamby licked and comforted
And stood guard over her as she delivered
In her cosy and comfortable box, three tiny kittens.
The day dawned and Ammini came to feed them.
The dogs ran to feed and she followed
Leaving her little ones behind to eat her fill.
Then sauntered off to freshen herself up.
Knowing her kittens would be safe in Bamby’s box.
But alas! the sight that met her eyes
Made her heart stand still
The two dogs were inside the box
Curled up, maybe mothering the kittens.
Spying her, they yelped in joy, stepping out.
The kittens lay squashed, she licked them
Trying to revive them, but they were gone.
