My mom found this poem online and it reminded her of Smokey "Bob"...
He came from a cage in the shelter
To be part of my life and my home,
To replace the cat that had left me
So I wouldn't feel so alone.
His fur is the color of smoke
And his eyes are a beautiful gold.
I wish I could know his life story
But I guess that will never be told.
Did you sleep on the bed of your owner
And purr when she patted your head?
Did you run to your dish in the kitchen
When you knew it was time to be fed?
Did you have a soft lap to curl up on
And relax in a nap with a sigh?
Did you love to look out of a window
To see a strange world passing by?
Now you fit so well into my lifestyle
I no longer feel so alone;
You've filled up that empty place in my heart
And turned my house into a home!
