Yellow Cat

Cats always disappear like dark clouds
She says. Same as people always leave
She wistfully voiced, with tears, aloud

No exception yellow cat, I won’t grieve
Nocturnal fool, warned you about foxes
In the night, as you sat purring in the eaves

We kept good company, I’ll miss our talks
Gray kitty longs for your old love songs
The morning dove avoids your stalks

Old stray, you hung around much too long
And touched my heart with your whiskered face
I’m proved not wrong, now that you’re gone

Our time together was no disgrace
Cats always disappear like dark clouds
