AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes

AUSTRALIA ~ The Antipodes
I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Kitty Strings

Word Pool Wednesday #5 ~ charity + donation + kitty
~

The tiny kitty was a charity case tragedy - disposable.
One leg missing was undesirable.
The donation of medical attention failed.
Failed until a little lame girl begged her mother for a furry friend.

This kitty looks very pretty in this photo. Even with a missing leg I bet it gets around quite well. I'm sure the little girl who know takes care of it is very happy with her new friend.

That was a very moving story. Happy endings are good - there is too much sadness in the world already.
