Cat and little leaf

Caring dove

A black and white cotton cat lives lightly by a lovely leaf 

she holds two colours on her soft skin 

tho seems more like the white 

that peaceful calm cloud in the sky 

light with more light than the dark sky who often feels sad 

 

this cotton cat seems comfortable content almost 

and she likes little leaves soft shapes 

the softness from tender trees 

one green leaf from many 

a gentle piece from the tree 

 

the cat sees the green leaf that was once held by helpful hands 

And the green little leaf feels nicely noticed 

less alone 

seen 

noticed by the loving cat

        This poem feels soft and gentle, like a quiet moment shared between a peaceful cat and a little green leaf. The cat, calm and light, brings comfort just by noticing the leaf. And the leaf, once alone, feels seen and special. There’s no rush or big message: just kindness in stillness. It reminds us how a small act, like noticing someone or something, can make the world feel a little less lonely. Beauty🕊️🙏🏻
