wolf in the wild

Even my little ones

By Kisama Riyo Published about a year ago 1 min read

One day a wolf leapt in the wilderness

On me and the little ones in my pen

Among them were my little ones

And I did not know that he went and ate everyone, even my little ones

And my misery increased when he chewed my little ones

And wasted me with his delusions and ate my big ones

I called my birds with his roaring voice

And I flew from his strength and he blew on my flowers

So I said: I will kill him for what he did to my little ones

And when I saw him standing on my seas

And waiting for my ship to sink in my rivers

I became angry and my anger increased

How does he enjoy devouring my children

And I am with them, afraid and stumbling in my thoughts?

I didn't know that the wolf was plotting against me

He would try to touch me and my children

After I fed him with my hand and gave him water

He left me and my tears blinded my sight

Then he devoured my children

I saw him approaching me and saying: Don't be sad, for betrayal is my nature and my Creator made me do it, so don't make me wait too long

So leave the question and come closer to tearing my depths apart

And flayed the poet's heart in my poetry notebooks

He increased my disappearance, so answer me, O Lord, and increase my spread

I have always been interested in poetry and essay, especially rhyme style, so I decided to post my essay here and see if I have any talent in poetry or not.
