Stray Cat's Prayer
Dear God, please send me somebody who'll care!
I'm so tired of running and sick with despair.
My body is aching and filled with such pain;
and dear God I pray, as I run in the rain
that someone will love me and give me a home,
A warm cozy bed, and food of my own.
My last owner left me alone in the yard...
I watched as they moved, and God that was hard.
So I waited a while, then went on my way
to rummage in garbage and live as a stray.
But now, God, I'm so tired and hungry and cold;
And I'm so afraid that I'll never grow old.
They've chased me with sticks and hit me with straps
while I run the streets just looking for scraps!
I'm not really bad, God, please help if you can,
for I have become just a "Victim of Man!"
I'm wormy, dear God, and I'm ridden with fleas;
And all that I want is an Owner to please!
If you find one for me, God, I'll try to be good.
I won't scratch the carpet; I'll do as I should.
I'll love them, play with them, and try to obey.
I will be so grateful if they'll let me stay!
I don't think I'll make it too long on my own,
'Cause I'm getting weak and I'm so all alone.
Each night as I sleep in the bushes I cry,
'Cause I'm so afraid, God, that I'm gonna die.
I've got so much love and devotion to give
that I should be given a new chance to Live!
So dear God, please hear me, please answer my prayer,
and send me somebody who will REALLY care.

A STRAY'S PLEA
I'm homeless and helpless, unwanted and alone;
I've no place to stay; I wander and roam.
I've no one to care if I live or die;
Nobody wants me as hard as I try.
I'm abandoned and starving and nobody cares;
I've met with nothing but hard and cold stares.
My stomach is empty, I've nothing to eat.
Why was I born and why am I here,
Without any love, without any cheer?
Won't somebody love and take care of me?
People throw stones and chase me away;
They revile and despise me because I'm a 'stray'.
But, if a kind soul would open their door,
I'd not have to be a 'stray' anymore!
Cat's Prayer
I hope I'm not asking too much, Lord;
All I want is a home of my own,
And to know when my next meal is coming
Instead of the scraps I get thrown.
I've been out in the cold for so long now,
Just coping as best as I can;
But it's not been so long I've forgotten
The touch of a soft caring hand.
I look in house windows at Christmas,
As cats doze by the fire, quite replete;
How I'd welcome a box in the kitchen,
And tasty food for me to eat.
For me there was tinsel and giftwrap,
But the fun didn't last very long.
They put me outside with the rubbish;
I still don't know what I did wrong.
I really don't want to be greedy;
At the moment I'm all skin and bone,
So would it be too much to hope for
That someone will give me a home?
