SOMETHING SPECIAL
Bgd 11/10/96

Saturday we went Yard Sale-ing
Its something we enjoy
And do together.
The thrill of the hunt,
For something special.
We hit a lot of sales.
Nothing special.
Heading home we see
A little one.
Nothing special,
But one never knows.
We stop and look around,
Nothing special.....
I spot the cage.
In it sits a kitten
A calico
About six weeks old.
I take her out
She is purring
'Like no tomorrow.
I hear a voice behind me
"She is free."
I laugh aloud.
"My husband hates cats!!"
I say  back.
I hold her in the palm
On my own small hand.
She falls asleep.
The husband takes her!
His eyes brighten
His shoulders relax 
A smile crosses his face.
The kitten, purring still
Licks his hand.
He laughs aloud too!!
"We're taking her!
She is MY kitty!!"
I almost faint as he speaks!
HE has a kitty?
To the store
We buy her food
And a cat toy.
She sleeps in the car
Purring on 
At home she is placed
In the bedroom.
Large, roomy and safe.
Holding her she makes
You feel content
Serenity .
A name
We try many
Nothing suits this
Tiny ball of fur.
I call her Ali Cat
And a name appears.
O'Cali ALI Chat.
We live in Ocala.
Chat is French
For cat!!!
I love to chat. !!!
We have found her,
Or did she find us?
Indeed she is........
