Stray Cat (Pastoral Poetry WS)
I used to befriend a stray cat
who was abandoned by his master
His once white fur has turned filthy
from his many adventures
My heart longed to keep him
but my parents won't allow it
so all I do is play with him
whenever I can make it
At times I fed him,
just to watch him eat
there's some happiness
in doing a good deed
Then a day came
that made me cry
I found him hurting
from the acts so vile
