Motherly Love Poem by Tango

Motherly Love



The stars shine brightly in the night,
crickets chirp loudly at the sight.
A bush moves slightly, and a cat appears,
for death stalks quietly, with all its fears.

A mouse nibbles hungrily on the corn,
for soon its young will be born.
With one giant leap,
the mouse is dead without a squeak.

The stars still shine up above,
as the cat washes her kittens with motherly love

Tango.

Earth! Always called mother earth; with motherly love. The same to human beings and animals. Nice work.
