The Warmth Of the Mother

in #artzone6 years ago

In a gloomy winter night,
When the forest was ready to sleep,
From the window of my room I noticed
A baby sparrow, which seemed quite lost.

*^ *^ *

I quickly jumped off of the bed,
And got dressed with anything I grabbed,
And raced down the stairs
To save the baby so lost and trapped.

Outside the wind begun to blow
As if the trees it wanted to tear
I hardly was able to hold my breath
And hardly was able to start the search.

*^ *^ *

Up above, from my cozy tiny window
Everything seemed like a silly play
In the forest though, the wind is unfriendly
And makes everything a dangerous game.

*^ *^ *

The snow is creaky, under my boots
My nose got frozen, and my hands too
Only my eyes, they were burning like fire
To find the baby, that once was so lost.

All of a sudden, near a frozen bush
I saw the little baby, crying
With a voice so thin, so pale
I took it in my hands and breathless i was looking around..

*^ *^ *

Above my head, near a bold standing tree,
In a nest so small and hidden in the branches,
His mommy dearly, waiting for him.

I carefully left the baby with her..

And then, in a hurry I ran
To get warm next to my mommy!!

I love the beautiful imagery of this piece and it successfully brought me back to the world of childhood innocence. Great job.

It was multicolored. Lots of bright colors, but also some darker hues. Character building. 😎

It is indeed.. Struggles are what mostly help build a character. You must be well-formed by now Steveo. Such a lovely person

Daily Doses that says 'use the tag to be considered for the dose.' this line is misleading because we only take the poems promoted in our channel, that also use the tag. I have corrected that line (removed it entirely) from the next dose. I apologise for the oversight and any inconvenience caused.I notice you used the #poetsunited tag in this post - our members are grateful that such a nice poem is published with the tag.
