Orange Kitten’s Mew Marc Gunn

One sunny June morning as I played in the grass
I heard a loud meowing beneath my neighbor’s house
When I peered into the darkness, my heart it pounced anew
I found the friend I’d wished for in the orange kitten’s mew

I set him in a basket and showed him to my mom
His wee head under his tail and small body so calm
I said if I can keep him, there’s nothing I won’t do
For my soul was enchanted by the orange kitten’s mew

Dad said we could only keep him ’till he found a new home
Then thе months scurried by; soon the kitten was full grown
Each еvening he and dad cuddled in the living room
Dad had fallen under the spell of the orange kitten’s mew

Almost five years later, Tiger still brings us much joy
Crying for belly rubs and batting ‘round his toy
The family is blessed to know a cat so loving and true
Our lives were changed forever by the orange kitten’s mew
