This is why so many wild creatures are in distress - whales, lions, elephants, wolves, bears......smaller creatures. They are already feeling what humans are too slow to recognize.
nope no monsters in our house. But animals know danger before it happens. 115 minutes before an earthquake struck here, my cat began acting strange and the birds outside and all other creatures were silent - as if by their silence they could hide.

this is the story of a girl who lived in the basement of the girl next door sheltered in the confines of a suburban tract house dungeon; her punishment for runnin' wild with dreams half unlatched she ran like a spirit in the night from those badlands wind blowin' through her hair shielding her eyes from the blinding light she hugged onto a shoreline of hope someday soon, she's not sure when her savior will rise up from the streets with an armload of rain soaked roses and second chances Rene ~ 2010 Click Here to join Magpie Tales creative writing group .
Ah, I they 'they' are right. Animals have an innate sense of danger, I think.

ReplyDelete...I haven't checked under the bed for years! If there is anybody there I am sure they are happy I don't disturb them.
ReplyDeleteSo, we are safer living with animals ... and developing our animal sense.
ReplyDeleteI think this is a perfectly crafted poem, brilliantly saying much in few words. I particularly love the second verse, of course.
