stray cats on the back porch found
one yellow - one white
one male - one female, respectively
one stayed - one vanished
a fixture yellow has become,
inside cats number three
all are male you see...
only one has venture outside
to play with the stranger.
malnourished was the yellow cat
found to be - fed regularly he was
now a fat cat we tend to see
waiting each morning on the deck
for our consistent arrival...
a stray cat he once was to us,
now a member of the family,
only somewhat you see as we have
three other cats to feed.
content with his surrounding,
we call him little boy, finding out
recently he goes by kitty kitty.
our stray yellow cat has survived
winter, spring, and summer,
providing joy and comfort when
inside and around our lives...
we felt sorry for the strays that no
longer seem to roam the grounds.
