Jen,
This is a poem I wrote after going through the same thing as you are posting about back iin 2001



In The Middle Of The Road



I was driving home late tonight

I saw two shiny blue sparkles

in the middle of the road.

As I passed by the tiny blue lights

I saw where they came from

this poor black cat laying dead

in the middle of the road.

In a split second I turned to go back

and help the poor black catlaying dead

in the middle of the road.

I pulled in the side street

and shined my lights in the road.

I went up to the poor black cat laying dead

in the middle of the road.

I prayed for a miracle to ahppen

and God would make the cat breath

but no miracle happened

in the middle of the road.

So I pulled the poor black cat

onto the grass where it was safe

from getting smashed over and over

in the middle of the road.

It made me so angry

that this poor black cat ahd to die

I cursed the cruel driver

who hit the black cat

and left it dead

in the middle of the road.

I drove home heart broken

as I cried for the poor black cat

Why was the poor black cat

in the middle of the road?

I will never understawnd

how poeple think it is ok

to let their animals out free to get killed

in the middle of the road.

I hope the owner finds their poor cat

on the grass where it lays

I hope they learned their lesson

of letting cats out free to get killed

in the middle of the road.

I love each and everyone of my babies

I never let them out

They might die of some illness

that only god can prevent

But they won't die a painful and senseless death!

The poor black cat deserved so much more

than being hit by a car

and laying dead

in the middle of the road!

This is a very rough first draft of what happend to me tonight and how upset I am about it! I just had to write it down and post it before I exploded!
