Amber

Since forever, you were what I always wanted
You are purest white, brown and amber.
The soft pitter-patter of footsteps
echos throughout the house.
You frolic both outside,
among the wonders of nature,
and bathe in the warm sunlight, or inside
among the dark shadows, hidden from all.
Occasionally you come out to greet me,
and sit by my side on cold winter's nights.
How fond of you I am, you cannot fathom,
my dear Amber the cat.
