Fylgja Cat: A Poem

Found in the yard, hiding out
Looking lost and scared
He saw us and knew we were his
He laid his claim and came into our home

Knowing what we had in store
he came along side us
to guide is and to be there
Steering us through the storm

Protecting us against ourselves
watching over us as our protector
against forces seen and unseen
He’s small but mighty
Little but strong
his will surpasses his size

The personality of a pit bull
but body of a meerkat
He is Diablo
Sent by the gods
Maybe the universe
Against the storm
To guide down the dark path
He knows the way
