Bob Tail

Missing image

He arrived one night so very late; a cold and windy night.

Hungry, dejected and dirty.

Such saddness in his eyes; he knew he had been born with

something wrong.

He had no tail and problems cleaning.

The others left him alone.

His face was oh,so handsome and sweetness filled his eyes.

A more majestic cat, I have never seen.

With the princely silhouette he strikes; a Lion King he will make.

His touch of love so ever light and a meow so sweet and small; each morning I wake up to this loving bundle of orange fur.

The love of the universe flows through him to all that are around.

And all the love that flows through me that I gave back to him; resulted in his healing.

He is an angel sent to me to guide through each day to learn that there is beauty in everyone we meet.

    I most definitely did not expect something like this when I put together my contest. I'm a cat person too and have taken in the odd stray along the way so I know how much joy and love they can bring. This was beautiful, touching, and sweet. I love it. Thank you so much for entering my contest!

    This is Most Precious

    I adore this poem. I am not so adorable a cat as Bob Tail. I am a high-power all business (most of the time) cat. But I do recognize real love when I see it, and this cat and this poem contain so very much of it! (Visit my Author's Page.)

    A most beautiful poem with a strong message. Your love for this precious cat helped to heal him, and in turn, to give you what you gave him. This is a very heartwarming write. Blessings, Patty
