Poem
As the telling of the tale should go ~ lonely old ladies always have a cat but I don't consider myself an old crow so I'll ignore the tale ~ and that's that! My Bella was a little homeless kitty and I'd just left my home of four years. I was sad, angry, and filled with pity for myself and her so I ruffled her ears. Green eyes that look into the depths of mine a sweet meow that wakens me each morn. She plays catch like a dog, and that's fine until she wants to keep playing...Oh Darn! She warms my feet at night like he used to do, but she never yells and walks off in a huff. She never makes me cry or even feel blue. Since I found her our lives are not so rough. Shades of burnt umber, grays and soft brown, she's watching me as I describe her fur coat. She makes me smile when I'm feeling down. It's no wonder upon my sweet Bella, I dote. A jump to the window sill then into my lap, she snuggles for want of love and attention. It's become her favorite place to take a nap although for me it presents a distraction. Sashay La Femme is my French name for her because she casually struts in a feminine way. Upon my chest she's stroked to make her purr. If I don't shoo her off she'll stay there all day! Bella Lane will soon reach the age of four. She's quite the social butterfly with everyone. A homeless baby kitten she is no more. Come and meet her. She's ready to have fun. :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: January 20th, 2016 I Love My Pet Contest Sponsor: Laura Loo
