the vagabond cat

 

The vagabond dark grey cat

Running here and there begging for food

Sometimes in the morning around the houses

Meowing his pitiful sound

At times at the back alley

Looking for food on the ground

The cat too finds it hard to live by

Searching for food to survive

Times bad now

We recognize it

The Covid 19 isn't slowing down

It affects the economy and people in it

The vagabond dark grey cat

Travel away from his hunting ground

Searching for food to live through the day

The last I saw it has grown thinner

I used to feed the stray cats

When they came to the garden

It was nearly 3 years ago

Until all had died or disappeared

Now I bought a packet of cat food

In case the vagabond cat comes knocking

With his familiar meowing tune

Passing through the house
