Gray Cat

Here I am, 
Watching outside the window
The snow covered the lawn
High above the head
Where are the small birds?  
Jumped from branches to branches
Swapped their songs in the breeze
Where are the green leaves?
Left the bald-headed trees freeze.

So sad to be alone,
My coat-color sky hides the sunlight
Where is the passersby?
The sidewalks remain empty
Where are the cars?
The street is not noisy 
Where are the roses?
Appeal the butterflies and bees.

Well! Well! Well!
It’s Mother Nature!
I can do anything, 
Like Man, wait for the next spring.

Very nice verse! I love the questioning wonder in the cat's search for spring. Linda
