My Children

Twitching noses,
soft fur,
and gentle nibbles.

I miss them always,
my sweet,
fluffy babies.

Small claws,
long tails,
and beady eyes.

So tiny
and so much
trouble.

Running,
endless squeaking,
round and round.

At times it pauses
and then
keeps going.

Little legs
pumping away
all through the night.

When I hear it,
loud,
obnoxious,
frustrating,
I remember that
no matter what
I will always love them.
