Irenic

A small creature with warm brown eye's,

Fur that's as a silver as the dollar coins lost in a fountain,

He looked upon me with mercy,

After I'd fallen to earth,

From a place I can't recall,

He gave me peace as he licked my bloody hand,

The dirt that had burnt to my metallic clothes,

Was a reminder of a place that I have lost,

In these woods,

Here is this angel with fluffy ears,

And pink paws that resemble the color of a peach lollipop,

My new friend, and little baby mouse,

That my heart has adopted,

Maybe my home could be this planet.
