Cutie Pie's Kittens

Cutie Pie’s Kittens

Kittens? Were they born?
She’s been gone for three days now.
She came back thinner.

Tiny newborn babies mine,
I will love you through all time.

Little Cutie Pie
Mother extraordinaire keeps
Her kittens hidden;

Hidden from the world afright
I’ll keep you safe day and night.

When will I see them?
I send a prayer to heaven
For their safety now.

Hidden from all prying eyes,
Safe and warm my babies lie.

Cutie Pie’s kittens were born on Saturday, June 10th, 006
