Stray Cat by Francis Witham
Oh, what unhappy twist of fate
The gate where once another stood
To beg for shelter, warmth, and food
For from that day I ceased to be
The master of my destiny.
While he, with purr and velvet paw
Became within my house the law.
He scratched the furniture and shed
And claimed the middle of my bed.
He ruled in arrogance and pride
And broke my heart the day he died.
So if you really think, oh Cat,
I'd willingly relive all that
Because you come forlorn and thin
Well...don't just stand there...Come on in!
(One of the cat cross stich projects Charles did. 14 count /1989 / 8x10 / Designed by Judy Nason © Graphique Needle Arts)
