A/N: I'm in SUCH a rush right now but basically this is the story of an original character I thought up - a headstrong kit named Rabbitkit who ate a poisonous flowering plant and died way too early. She may be a character in a fic I'm currently planning. I wanted a little feedback on the idea though. So here it is;
Rabbitkit
I was born in the early spring
Just as the wildflowers came out
The ones they told me not to
Put into my mouth
Did I ever listen?
Did I ever take a moment?
I didn't even know what Mama meant
When she said the word 'repercussions'
The weather got warmer
My eyes finally began to open up,
So did the skies
So did the small red flower-buds
I remember the first time
They let me run outside
I knew I was right where I belonged –
I was a child of summertime
The sun filled me up
My sister wanted to go back in the den
She complained till we did
But I couldn't wait to go out again
Pretty soon we could go out often
And I watched as the patrols came and went
Thinking "that'll be me soon!"
But then my plot decided to twist
I went out alone
In the middle of the night
The wind was feeling colder than it ever had before
And I was doing alright
Those sweet blossoms called me over to them
And softly walking around\
I wondered what they would taste like
Not knowing they'd be the reason I'd soon be part of the ground
I ate them as I listened to the owls calling
Back and forth, friend to friend
Not knowing it would be one of those sounds
That I'd never hear again
The next day I felt just like
I had the day before
But soon I'd fall ill and it'd last for only a day
Till I died all alone, on the forest floor
Next, I'd walk alone, a path of solitude
Leading to ancestors I know nothing about
And like so many others before
Wishing I knew then, what I know now….
