Fei Mooi kitten
The neighbour wanted to throw away
Caught her brought to the garden
Let her stay free
A month she stayed
Fei Mooi roamed free
Every time she would sit
Near my legs to say
“I am not going anywhere
I am here to stay”
But the mother cat
She didn't care for her kitten
Fei Mooi grew weak the last few days
Until she couldn't open her eyes
Today I look for her
Find her in weak motion
Massage her weak body
Knowing she will not make it
The last few days
She was drinking milk hungrily
I thought she would recover
Until this morning
When I came back from breakfast
Fei Mooi gone to her paradise
Burying her in the garden
Praying for her last rite
Fei Mooi kitten
I remember her bright eyes
Waiting at the main door
Sitting near my legs
