Misty
by Pauline YearwoodIf you love something, set it free.
That's what they said in the '60s.
So when she broke up with her boyfriend
And had to move to a new apartment
Where they didn't take pets
She drove Misty to a distant neighborhood
Way out where the nice houses were
Kissed the upside-down orange "M" between her eyes
And set her down in a big front yard.
Somebody will adopt her, she thought
As Misty began a life of freedom
That ended four weeks later
When a thin orange cat
On the trail of a bag of fresh garbage
Crossed the street in front of a car
That was going much too fast.
