<BGSOUND SRC="Silent_Night.wav" LOOP=INFINITE>
He lurks among the garbage cans,
so hungry and so cold.
With matted fur and runny eyes,
a pathetic sight to behold.

He was once a precious kitten,
sweet and cute and fluffy.
Destined to be a beauty,
but now so dirty and scruffy.

A life on the streets has taken its toll,
his health is not very good.
His body is wracked with pain sometimes
from the struggles he�s withstood.

There is no home, there is no love
to keep him safe from harm.
No human to stroke and cuddle him
and be enraptured by his charm.

He doesn�t want much�just a scrap or two,
something to drink that�s not frozen.
Then he�ll go on his way and leave you alone
to continue his path unchosen.

Many will say he belongs in a pound
yet his heart cries out to live.
Way down deep inside of him
he�s got so much love to give.

In a world that�s too often cruel,
he wants only to survive.
Everyday a constant battle
just to stay alive.

So on this Silent, Holy night
take guidance from Above.
As at the manger so long ago,
Please Share The Christmas Love.
