Pampered Feline
black feline turns her pouty nose
baked salmon does not meet her pleasure
forgets she found solace from nature’s wrath
rambling through woods seeking food
challenged by predators
curls up on my lap
safe from elements outside
purrs without a care
oblivious to her past
protected from life outdoors
no wind ruffles fur --
assured she'll never hunger
for love or for food
