Whether in poetry or prose, strong word choice can unlock images, emotions, and more in the reader, and the associations and connotations that words bring with them play a crucial role in this.
After years of wanting to raise a pet kitten, my parents finally allowed me to have one. I was extremely excited and could barely contain my happiness when we went to the animal shelter. However my dad put a specific condition for me to raise the cat "he won't be able to roam around the house," he said. Because of this condition, we had to empty the last room in the house, which would be the place where the kitten would stay. There we spread cat towers, footrests, scrapers, litter box and everything the cat could need to have a happy life.
When we arrived at the shelter, I carefully observed each cat present in the place and chose a black kitten that was meowing a lot. I think he wanted to get my attention and he did it. The kitten was full of energy and I believed it would be simple to take care of him. However, I was completely wrong.
The kitten was extremely smart and managed to escape the room prepared for him at all times. We couldn't keep him there, because he found a way to escape. Although this is a very funny situation, we tried to seal all the ways out and were overcome by fatigue. Our last attempt was to reduce the empty space under the door. We thought that my father would complain too much about the situation and that the cat would not be able to conquer him, but we were wrong again. My dad, who had no fondness for cats, was completely blown away by our kitten's cleverness, we thought he wouldn't allow the cat to stay in the house, but yet he did it.
