The Kitten Poem by Audrey Heller

I needed someone to talk to, so God,
I spoke to you. I felt so very downcast,
I didn't know what to do. You see, I
found this little kitten, who was left
outside to die. It made me very angry,
all I could ask, was why? How could
anyone be so callous? They did'n t
even care. How in all humanity, could
they have left this kitten there? I know
in my heart God, I did what was right.
I took the kitten home and watched
over it, that night. All I thought about
was to save it, hoping it would be all
right. But unfortunately, that wasn't to
be so. I had to put it to sleep, I had to
let it go. Somehow, I realized there
was nothing, anyone could do. I felt
it in my heart...It's something, I just
knew!
