the stray cats

The stray cats

Running loose on the road

Sitting leisurely at the back lanes

Grooming under the shades

Sometimes they get crumbs

Throw by the housewives

Through the kitchen windows

The stray cats like

Nobody wants to catch the strays

The cats don't fetch monetary value

The houseowners will chase away

The stray cats trespassing through

Though the stray cats are nuisance

Stained the garden and urine

The humans are their slaves

Cleaning it up staring at the strays

At a pet shop I walk by

I see a mix breed for sale

A mix of siamese and persian cat

In the cage waiting for buyers

There is no price tag

I believe it could be a stolen cat

It is an adult male with blue eyes

Sitting quietly in the cage

He will look

Hoping to get out of the cage

But many are interested in birds

So the poor cat sits alone and wait

The stray cats causing nuisance

The poo and urine in the garden

Sometimes in the porch or near pillars

The marks of their visit and return
