"Jane Doe"

Jane Doe was what I named her
She was saved from sudden death
Discarded from a moving car
As nature held its breath
In the cold rain
Along that lonely road
She slept the forty miles
Until I got her home
Now she sleeps in my palm
All her worries gone
Upon my pillow she will rest
Slumbering safely from dusk to dawn

I had a Jane Doe once, my husband saved her from a drain pipe. She was so cute and just that size. Wonderful poem!

This one is a bit older now but still needs to mellow out. For the time being she is wreaking havoc with the other three cats who are quite a bit older.Yet she sleeps upon the table here as I write my words.
