Stray Kitten
Fur as soft as a goose down bed
Button nose and small round head
Catching mice and playing round
Then at night they sleep so sound
Walk all over you when trying to work
Opening food and see their ears perk
Once a stranger and now a friend
I’ll take care of you until the end
Beautiful koi
Watch as they grow
The magnificent koi fish swims to and fro
Down in the shallows, down below
These wonderful fish have nowhere to go
Never once do they complain
As they swim in the rain
Nothing to let go, nothing to gain
Beautiful koi
They swim round and round
Sit next to their pond
Get lost in the sound
