Pouring pooling
beneath the shivering body
of the brown field mouse

A blood stain left
imprinted
on smooth slate
by the river

I ask:

"Why so cruel this God of mine?"

Oh, the poor little mouse. It pains me to see anyone suffer--even mine enemies! --Hope I don't have any tho'!

God is Loving, never cruel. Pray for the mouse...

Warm hugs,
