The Tiny Critter Poem by Rizwana Sultana

A timid and elegant,
Spry little critter,
Always excited and active,
While scampering hither and thither.

A prey to so many animals,
From ferocious tigers to gentle cats,
Except a kind human,
Who tames and lovingly pats.

Better taming it at home,
Making an affectionate pet,
Having all care and concern,
Nothing to fret.

My cute white bunny,
I used to fondle,
Fed carrots to it,
And leaves of peepal.

Hiding behind the flower pots,
The plants it used to nibble,
And slept on the soft grass,
Like a cute angel.

But now, it has vanished,
I know not where,
When I went to the terrace,
It wasn't there.

My domestic pet, I miss,
Which has disappeared,
It used to come running,
And never from us feared.
