i don't like cats

by alie jay

i don't like cats i used to say
till i got that call one day
my neighbor friend on the phone
said between her nieces home
and garage there were
two kittens and a mothers purr
although i could not take all three
one kit and mom they both took me
back to my home or i should say
a place they purred that i could stay

i don't like cats i love them now
a symphony with each meow
their look
their gaze
their leap
their dart
they own my soul
they are my heart.
