Little paw prints
left a path where
here led to there,
down sprang to up,
and what’s gold
was certain
to disappear.
A kitten arrived
unsuitably named Milk,
quickly taught us
her name should
be Powder.

Powder was such a precious cat. She moved from Oklahoma to Texas with us in 2003 and even evacuated Hurricane Rita with us in 2005 on an eight hour journey (normally a three hour trip) from Houston to San Antonio. She was fifteen years old when she left us. Oh I miss her.
