My Cat

MY Cat!

I had a chat

With my cat

The other day

It went this way:

Are you comfy down there

With your rear up in the air?

Don’t slither from place to place

Ending up with covering my face

And now that I’m quietly reading the paper

Why do you start your bat the paper caper?

And now that I am approaching the hour of sleep

Why do you surreptitiously under my blanket creep?

And when your tiny little claws dig into my rib

I wish that I’d worn a large patent leather bib

You curl up in the bend of my knee

So I can’t get out of bed and go pee.

Like some denizen from the deep

You attack my unassuming feet!

Well, I don’t fall on my face

And you still win the race

Now it’s back to bed

And I hide my head

Yes, I love you cat

Warming my back

Big fat

Cat

PS.

All that soft fur

Covers a lotta purr! Inspired by Purkinje, our Siamese.(and he’s long, not fat!)

Optimism

We have a reason
To be optimistic every day...

It's just that some days
We have to work harder to find it!

When in Jail

When one is in jail
Time flies like a snail

Grief

The hole in your heart

From grief

Creates more space

For love

Life

Life

(the short version)

Problems come

Problems go

Life goes on

Go with it

Celebrate

What

You

Can
