A brief story about a visiting cat, never seen by us before, who chose our house as his last resting place. We called the cat ‘Graylyn’.

Ode to Graylyn

Stray, gray
Death a heart beat away
Just here to say
Can’t stay
Another day
Please, with passion, lay
Me down, and say
He was good, but lost his way
In the dying days of May.

Winston-Salem, North Carolina, USA, June 2011
