A lone woman
Who cares
In defiance of others
In dangerous lands
Of Gaza sorrow
She watches
Over kittens
Youngsters
And the old
She walks quiet streets
In search of
The desperate, desolate
And unloved
With sanctuary doors
That remain open
For Christmas
For all seasons
Chaichi's haven
A place of love
A beacon of hope
