The Life of Lulu Little
by Robyn E. Little

Lulu Little had a mysterious start to life
No mother father or siblings to speak of
Three nameless kids with one father
Absent to each, hers to keep clean
But you see
Lulu was thrown out onto the streets
Barefoot, pregnant and nowhere to call home
Then she was picked up and put in a shed
Giving birth to three babies alone
Then strange people came and took her away
She slept most of the day away
Arguing with the neighbors and a few mouthfuls in between
Occasionally she still wonders about her babies
In the night her new mother whispers to her about them
Lulu may have grandchildren by now
She certainly acts like a grandma
Moaning about her woes
Sitting in her chair licking her wounds
Falling asleep for 22 hours straight
Oh before I forget just let me reiterate
Lulu does all these things and she does
all these things because Lulu is a cat
