OUR PRECIOUS CAT

Some years ago,

When I was a child

We lived in a small strange village

No cats exist in it.

Cats were living in all villages around it

But in that village No cats at all.

Why?

No one knows

Dogs and rats, but no cats

What should we do?

Rats are everywhere free and happy

eat or just play

always they made troubles

Who will save us?

We asked hopefully

We need a cat

Only a cat can save us

A friend of my father gave us his precious cat

Mixed colored, white and orange

How beautiful it was!

A lovely male cat

It lived with us

It believed that It is one of the family

Slept in our bed

Ate our food

And played with us as a brother, not as our cat

We were so happy

But happiness time often is short

We had to travel for two weeks

We couldn't take him with us

With our neighbors, we left him

After they promised to take care of our precious lovely cat

When we returned to the village with too much longing

We asked about him

Simply they answered sorry, it died

With too much sadness and pain, How? we asked,

It refused to eat cats food and refused to sleep on the ground

It went out of the house we found it dead they answered.

Oh My God,

We searched for it We found its body beside a dead rat

With our love we Buried him

Goodbye, our saver.

Goodbye, our precious.
