This ancient lucky cat has landed in my possession.
Sources suggest that it has spent a good deal of time submerged
in salt water, most likely the sea.
An accurate dating of its age is not possible.
The miracle is that it still functions, waving its arm to
passers by who drive and walk by our shop window.
This is indeed one lucky cat.
I'm hoping that it's going to rub off.
On Saturdays I'll carefully pack it up and take it down
with me to the Rose St. Market.
