Lullabye for a Stormy Night

Description

Little child,
Be not afraid
The rain pounds harsh against the glass
Like an unwanted stranger,
There is no danger
I am here tonight
Little child,
Be not afraid
Though thunder explodes and lightning flash
Illuminates, your tearstained face
I am here tonight
And someday you'll know
That nature is so
This same rain that draws you near me
Falls on rivers on land
On forests on sand
Makes the beautiful world that you see
In the morning...

Little child,
Be not afraid 
The storm clouds mask your beloved moon
And its candlelight beams
Still keep pleasant dreams
I am here tonight
Little child, 
Be not afraid
The wind makes creatures of our trees
And the branches to hands
They're not real, understand
And I am here tonight
And someday you'll know
That nature is so
This same rain that draws you near me
Falls on rivers and land
On forests and sands
Makes the beautiful world that you see
In the morning...

For you know,
Once even I was a little child,
And I was afraid
But a gentle someone always came
To dry all my tears
Trade sweet sleep for fears
And to give a kiss goodnight
Well now I am grown
And these years have shown
Rain's a part of how life goes
But it's dark and it's late 
So I'll hold you and wait
Till your frightened eyes do close
And I hope that you know
That nature is so 
This same rain that draws you near me
Falls on rivers and land
On forests and sand
Makes the beautiful world that you see
In the morning
Everything's fine in the morning
The rain will be gone in the morning
But you'll still be here in the morning....

- Lullabye for a Stormy Night~ Vienna Teng

This is a scene from The Last Hope. It is when Sandstorm tries to stop Firestar from battling, because he is on his last life. But Firestar comforts her, telling her he will be okay. I think this song fits that moment.

This is a very touching image. The trees frame the image nicely. The expression of worry on their faces helps evoke emotion and lends a solemn mood in the piece.
While I understand the characters are stylized there are a few atomically issues I would like to point out.
Overall, the proportions are very canine. Cats are longer than they are tall. They have a long back (they actually have a couple extra vertebrae) and robust short limbs. The muzzle is short, but very dog like.
The front legs are off. The elbow seems to be too low. Firestar's forearm is, way off. Mostly because the elbow is too low. I can see what you were going for. The humerus connects to the ulna and radius only slightly below the sternum. The pisiform pad and dew claw are absent as well. The knee is way too low as well. Te ankle is too high and the metatarsals are too long whir the lower leg, tibia and fibula are too short. Here is a skeletal reference for help.

Great work, just work on anatomy and your art will improve tons. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/l/l…" width="19" height="19" alt=":la:" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="577" title="La la la la"/>
