TABBY THE KITTEN

Put my hands on your shoulder
Whispered new words .. baby
Showed you I loved you truly.
Now when will you be mind ??

Yesterday a baby cat 
Strolled into our house.
It was fun to see 
Who was more confused .. her or me.

She just walked into my house.. 
With her head held high
Through the french windows downstairs
That were left open wide.

Tabby the kitten .. she was                                                   
Must have been hungry
Was it for love or food
I never could tell.

Soon was confused
so she ran up the stairs
And into my daughter's bedroom
And into the walk in closet room.

She climbed onto the suitcases above
For she thought the light
From the sky windows
Might hold the way out.

In fright she jumped down ...
In kindness ... the verandah door 
We now opened wide for her
And she jumped out.

She caused an excitement
She caused a little stir 
She was here for but a moment
She came to leave a bit of herself
In this poem here.
