original photo of Kareen & Simba by Alex Szabo
Long ago,
There was a kitten,
And a little girl who loved him.
His name was Simba.
--------
Simba would become the cat of her dreams.
The love of her young life.
-----
They never got to say goodbye.
---------
She says I remind her of him.
-----
She says she still misses him,
like the deserts miss the rain.
