Ode to Found Kitten

My kitten's four paws
Hide claws in his feet.
If his feet are on pause,
He is soundly asleep.

If he then starts to purr
In a deep warm soft rumble,
His engine is idling,
Ready for trouble.

Dear Darlene, Stormy soud beautiful. We have been blessed in caring for two kitten boys who were found abandoned at just a few weeks old. They are a complete joy and a much loved addition to our home.
