[personal profile] butterflydreaming

Like a kitten, tiny teeth and fur,
this friendship looks to its own comfort.
It kneads with needle claws, and purrs,
curling up in our warm space.

Like a kitten, lacking mature grace,
this friendship tests a spot to land;
a little thing that finds its place
with rumbling sound and plaintive meow.

Like a kitten, and I'm wondering how
this little creature found this home.
And I do not want to scare it now;
I want this soft and hopeful love.


"ABAC CDCE EFEG"
The rhyme scheme almost did me in, so I had to give up at 3. I wanted an awkward feel to the verse. since I'm not completely happy with the way this turned out, this person will have to play muse again on another one.
