LIFE OF STRAY CATS
LIFE OF STRAY CATS


In those innocent eyes,
Hide thousands of unspoken words,
Untouched by humanity,
Unnoticed by kindness.
They roam door to door on the streets,
Sometimes on the roads,
In search of food,
Abandoned by a simple touch of sympathy.
They are the brave souls,
Who know the tricks how to catch a mouse,
Even without practicing any hunting skills.
The mother cats are affectionate,
They struggle day and night,
To eat those stale foods from the dustbin,
And afford a comfortable life to the kittens.
How heartbreaking it is to notice the cruelty
Of
humans when they throw stones
At those beautiful dolls!
If only they could offer a piece of bread
Or small amount of rice
To satisfy their hunger.
If only humans could put a bucket of water
Inside their courtyard or behind their houses
To quench their thirst.
Oh, human!
Whether adopt or not,
Please don't hurt these beautiful
innocent souls.
Supply them some food when they need,
Show them affection,
Be humble and kind.
- Archana Maharana (Lucky)
