Little Miss Sophie

Cat of the woodlands
Cat disguised as leaves, earth, and twigs

Raised as an infant with squirrels

She hides nuts and tiny balls and hair-ties

Raised by raccoons until she was weaned

She washes her paws and her strings
Leaving strings in her water-bowl so that they'll be cleaned

A scratch across her nose,

She was shoved and pushed from their nest
Crying and crying she landed on our back doorstep

Such beautiful, sweet eyes the color of an exotic sea

She made her way into the home of humans
And decided she was pleased

Here she remains the princess of all

The camouflaged and beautiful woodland cat
Who is adored by all
