David Deal Poet Tercet

Little Kitty

Play, tiny kitty, no more in fear,
Come away from the shelter with me,
Enjoy, be happy, live a life dear!

Grow, little kitty, the world is yours,
Tiny kitty no longer you be,
Youth, now progressing, growing cat roars!

Rest, full-grown kitty, sit for the day,
As our memories build steadily,
Stay here beside me, don’t go away.

Sleep, senior kitty, passed to beyond,
Time here together, gone speedily,
Sweet little kitty, one special bond.

Darlene De Beaulieu July 13, 2026 at 4:08 PM Hello David Deal, It does not take much to get attached to a kitten. Kittens and a cat older than that shows us a lot of love. Nice to meet you David Deal. /Darlene/ Darlene De Beaulieu July 24, 2026 at 5:16 PM Hello David Deal, Yes these cats and kittys have a way about them., Right now my cat Stormy is sleeping on the backre4st of the couch.
