Ciao Sugarray!
glad my wee poem touched you.
I don t know if you have pets but for many years I have helped a close friend that saves stray cats /kittens from the streets.
I nurse some back to health , tame others and then she finds happy forever homes for them.
Thank you for the extra shiny star !
Stay safe!🍀

-Very nice image
and presentation.
-The syllable count is good,
along with the topic.
-You wrote a good poem
about adopting a stray, and
how it changed its world.
-I think every thing we do
to make something or someone
feel better is a good way
to make a difference in the world.
-Good luck in the contest.
-I like the compassion you show in it.
-One small thing; you need 'changed'
instead of 'change'.

Thank you for the helpful feedback, much appreciated!
Originally I had written:
It may not change the world
Then I put :
It may not have change? and I forgot to add the ..ed.
Yes I often write about strays because I believe they deserve a second chance .. a happy forever home.
They give so much in return.
I?m glad the topic is close to you too.
Keep safe!

I love this poem. I did animal rescue for 10 years and saved a lot of lives. Most of the cats I had were taken from kill shelters. Adopting a stray or an animal from a kill shelter, you gain the most loyal companions.
Beautiful imagery, visuals and an adorable artwork.
Good luck in the contest.

Ciao !
I can see you were very involved in saving these poor souls.
Ten years is a long time.
You have a big heart ..
It s hard work and it consumes much time and energy but the payoff is worth it.
Wish there were more caring people like you.. ( smile)
Thank you for the kind review !
Keep safe!
