Just For You Poetry

This one is written for my English friend Kate who now lives in a suburb of Paris after a long stint in Delhi... She lost her Indian pet cat named Chapati in Paris but was fortunate enough to find him after four months!
***********************************************************************************************************

Chapati came home,
after four long months.
He just sauntered in
without much ado.
I stood there staring,
in sheer disbelief!
How could my lost cat
slip in, just like that?

I'd scoured the gardens
of Bois de Boulogne,
looking all over
for my sleek black pet,
who'd travelled with me
all the way from Delhi,
only to get lost
in tony Suresnes!

Now that he is back,
my worries are over.
I'll be celebrating.
his safe return home.
All the neighbourhood
cat lovers will be
invited to tea
with Chapati and me.

A wonderful thing to happen, cats do seem to have a life of their own wandering off and returning just when it suits them..lol

I am so happy that Chapati came home again,he must have a great homing instinct..

Oh what a delightful account of finding Chapati again - -your friend Kate would have been over the moon after four sad months thinking him lost - -your story had me holding my breath with wonder that Chapati had found his way home. Thanks for sharing this happy ending Sandra.

Lovely poem. So glad for the happy ending.

The cat came back, the cat came back...I thought he was a goner, but the cat came back, cause he couldn't stay away! (from an old song) Great news.

A most interesting and enjoyable poem about how a cat can find their home after a long period of time, and it is amazing that they manage to do this. This is a great inspirational write thank you Sandra.
