Shy Kitten Poem by Nosheen Irfan

Shy Kitten

We have a guest in the yard
A shy Kitten with a weak heart
He scurries off at the sight of a human
Poor little thing! He is mighty scared
We gave him food, boiled chicken
And a small bowl of milk to top it off
He looked satiated and dashed away
But he came back for more the next day
Now he doesn't run off as fast as he used to do
He is trying to understand humans
Through the food.

ONE: A shy kitten with a weak heart he gets to eat boiled chicken, what a delicious meal Animals instinctively know when they encounter humans is sweet or bad especially this shy hungry kitten Loveliest worded for this shy kitten

Update on kitten......he is doing great. He has even made a friend, another cat much bigger in size. He is less scared of humans now and very social with other cats.

It's all about acclimatization! Your two lines speak volumes about the fact: He is trying to understand humans/through the food. An excellent poem...appreciated!
