Two Poems from our Animals Poetry Collection

 
 
THE HUNT
   
Author: Carmen Aistrup
   
Poem:
THE HUNT
   
  Slick and keen and listening,
ears twitching in the cold.
Muzzle searching constantly,
though anything but bold.

knows the Beasts are near,
off like the first rays of light,
across the stream, under brush,
and through a terrible fright.

The horse and dogs and man,
The Beasts tramble through,
through the streams and brush,
chasing fear through morning dew.

The Fox runs ahead,
as the Beasts bellow behind,
trying to think steadily,
tries to keep a steady mind.

At last finds a hiding place.
Cool dirt under sore paws,
in the den of someone else,
escaping from Beast's jaws.

The dogs trample past the den,
the Beasts give up and go away,
puzzled by the Fox's leave,
the Fox is safe another day.

MY PET 'N' I
   
Author: Nkiru Banjoko
   
Poem: MY PET 'N' I
   

My furry little friend,
Is a delightful little fiend.
On my face he’ll press his nose,
And makes me feel so close.
Though no words are spoken,
Yet much affection is woven,
Between my furry little pet ‘n’ I.

He loves to poopoo on my chair,
And leaves with no cheer,
Making me grit my teeth in the pain,
I try to hold back in vain.
So many other things it does,
That makes me surely to know,
That the furry little pet I love,
Is a nasty little pest I hate.

On four wheels of rubber,
It makes my heart pound in wonder.
With no arms to hold me, I ponder
Why it is fast becoming a lover,
Glimmering and beckoning on me to spend on it,
All my hard earned money to the least,
This my four legged pet of pure metal,
I hope, someday will not be the pest to run me mental.

The beast I know for certain is,
The beast that drives me to tease,
Mammon and give him a kiss,
And in my life something definitely is amiss.




Though I love the company of my pets,
Whether the metallic or furry pet.
Though I would love to believe in my heart,
Of my life they are a part,
Yet I know I seek something deeper,
And yea, certainly something better,
I had hoped to find in my pets,
Only to discover in them the pests,
Buried deep as in felt.
