To the Cat Who Ran Away
To the Cat Who Ran Away
You left so quietly one day,
We didn’t hear your little feet.
You slipped away and gone ,
While we were all busy with work.
You were never meant to stay in,
You loved to chase and roam.
But now the house feels strange and sad,
Without you here at home.
We call your name, we check the yard,
We leave out food and wait.
We hope you're safe and warm somewhere,
And not too far or late.
If one day you come back to us,
No need to ask or cry—
Your bed is here, your bowl is full,
We’ll greet you with a sigh.
