Where you came from
we were never quite sure,
but one day we looked around
and there you were.

A little bit tired and a
little bit weary
your past was unknown and
your uncertian future a
little scary.

You became a good friend in
no time at all.
You were there whenever we
would call.

When you bore your young
we welcomed you in to our
home in hope that you would
not roam.
We accepted your son as our
own.

In no time at all you brought
us more joy.
5 girls and 1 little boy.
Filling our lives with love ,
we gave you all we had hoping
it was enough.

As is too often the case
you left us with only a
memory to embrace.
Now we find ourselves wishing
you werent gone,
but in your abscence we will
love all your daughters and
your sons.

Our hearts are feeling a
little empty and blue.
Ms. Kitty, whereever you may
go
know ALWAYS
we will miss you!

dare I respond to a poem about wayward kitties aboandoning their young? I think I'd better let this golden opportunity pass. Pandora and Redwriter are ever vigilant. Nice poem, though.

Nice tribute! It's sad when they go! But the little ones are a part of her!
