Cat

That rainy evening
The male cat killed the kittens
When the mother left.

She came back to me
Mewing with imploring eyes
A tear left my eye.

I wish I had known
The magic to get back life
And spare her the grief.

    @Milan Rajkumar
    I read about cats and it said that the male shows domination over females in this manner.

    Thanks for reading.
