SABLE

She came to us needing a new home
A stray that was tired of being on the roam
She was hesitant at first to get very near
But in time she got over this fear

It started with her following Misty and I
She’d walk behind us keeping a close eye
Everywhere Misty and I went she was there
They really made quite an interesting pair

She’d get closer and closer as days went by
I wish she’d let me pet her I would sigh
Then one day she let down her guard
For her to do so must have been hard

As I went to touch her she started to purr
It was her way of thanking me-you kind sir
From that moment on she became a true friend
I knew I’d take care of her until the very end

Her coat and color made Sable the perfect name
With lots of love and reassurance she became quite tame
She will forever be a part of our family for years to come
She will never have to worry again about being lonesome
