THE BEAUTY OF TIME
My cat
used to be
an outdoor/indoor
cat.
She used to
love
playing catch with
birds,
field hockey with
mice,
hide and seek with
moles,
and tag, you're it -
with bees.
Today my cat,
is an indoor cat
full-time
due to circumstance
beyond
my control.
She hasn't been
outdoors
in almost
4 years.
The other day,
a fly managed
to get
inside.
What a
welcome treat!
What a sight
for my cat's two
sore eyes.
They became -
the best of friends
