Poem from Mom "Unexpected Guest"

Unexpected Guest




on the floor
by the cabin door
Gypsy's water dish
fulfilling her wish
a visitor on the edge
for her a high ledge
sat a ladybug beetle
no rhymn nor reason
to be here this season
a guest unexpected
we left neglected
looking like
a chocolate truffle duffle
colored red and black
with a head and four feet
she was very neat
we watched her
as she did shuffle
without a scuffle
in from the cold
she is so bold
getting a drink
do you think
