Perplexed me...what was wrong?
As I left the cape with...

Please give me...

The shadows of horsemen on leather steeds draw near
With the sounds of gallops in the heavy thick fog

This feral kitten born inside a barn
In dark times, she was ever intervening
To bring smiles, she wrestled balls of yarn
