my favorite animals - poetry by me

Bunnies are so strange 

Poor, innocent naive little creatures 

So scared they will run away forever

Anything but facing it first

Fluffy bunny, why is that you get frightened by change? Loud voices? 

You’re so odd, I can see my reflections in your scared, prey crimson eyes 

Owls are so aggressive

Evil, malevolent ,feathered hunting critter

They hunt and stalk their prey to death 

In the end you’re just misunderstood, lonely owl

Your hunting is what keeps you alive, and your curiosity what guides your way

It’s so peculiar, I can see my reflection in your big, round deep eyes

Butterflies are so weak, they die within a week, anything can hurt them

They will spend their lifetime looking for a better place, why is that so, colorful butterfly?

 While some people think they’re pretty, they will stop liking them and will be grossed out as soon as they see them up close and near 

It’s so bizarre, I can see my reflection in your tiny delicate shiny eyes 

My favorite animals all sound a lot like me, but the only difference between me and those innocent little creatures is that they’re pure and I am not.
