Happy World Animal Day!
World Animal Day is celebrated each year on October 4. It started in Florence, Italy in 1931 at a convention of ecologists as a way of highlighting the plight of endangered species. Since then it has grown to encompass all kinds of animal life and is widely celebrated in countries throughout the world. October 4 was chosen as World Animal Day as it is the Feast Day of St Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of animals.
It is intended as a day of celebration for anyone in the world who cares about animals. It is not restricted to any one nationality, creed, religion, political belief or ideology.
I don't have a pet of my own at the moment, but someday I'm gonna adopt as many pets as I can afford and give them love and shelter. So to all the pet owners out there, Happy World Animal Day! And PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't abandon your pets. You are their lives! You have your job, partner, family, hobbies, all they have is YOU.

Love of a Mother

Drowned.
It was in the rain
That I saw my eyes
Fall away from me
And I lost my sight.
It was in that downpour
That my words hollowed out
I was left silent, but aching
My lungs filled with a drought.
Under the barrage of bullets
Wet, but aching to the skin
All my thoughts left me
So rain took over within.
I cried out, “LET IT STOP”
As it weighed down my body
All hope washed away
Dreams swam far from me.
Vulnerable and bare
Under a street light I drowned
Till the rays of the dawn
Began to bring me around.
I stood shivering and cold
Before the glare of the sun.
All mistakes and all triumphs
Erased and undone.
Below me lay the wreckage
Of my life washed away
So I set off, bewildered
And I began to reclaim.
