eclipsing apple moon
darkened moon laughs
words glow like coals
tiger finds her path
subtle wink
brush curves sight in two strokes
cat prowls in shadows
full eye opens
sheet adorns window
purrs in silver grove
words glow like coals
tiger finds her path
subtle wink
brush curves sight in two strokes
cat prowls in shadows
full eye opens
sheet adorns window
purrs in silver grove

a cats plea
Take care of my human
until I return
I have to go now
I know it's my turn
He is broken and scarred
and afraid of the light
but he keeps you safe
and he holds you tight
He may be cold
when it's winter outside
but has the warmest of hearts
beating inside
He loves you dearly
and shows it each day
so please stay with him,
don't go away
As for I have to go now
and I know he will hurt
so you have to watch him
stay at his side here on earth.
until I return
I have to go now
I know it's my turn
He is broken and scarred
and afraid of the light
but he keeps you safe
and he holds you tight
He may be cold
when it's winter outside
but has the warmest of hearts
beating inside
He loves you dearly
and shows it each day
so please stay with him,
don't go away
As for I have to go now
and I know he will hurt
so you have to watch him
stay at his side here on earth.

Take Your Cat
Take your cat and leave my sweater
it’s only because of the weather
this need to hold onto Christmas
even if the damn thing’s ugly
bedecked with Santa and his deer
sequins forming shiny balls
I’ll wash it till the hair has been removed
even if Rudolf will lose an eye.
One gives me hives while the other warms me
dander is my kryptonite
you knew that when you brought them
feline demon into my safe abode
‘it doesn’t shed’ was your mantra then
tears spring to eyes in response
not to the sorrow I remember well
but to...

Taz
Can't help but watch her green eyes glow
Wide open at the break of day
High-tailing out to greet the sun
She's black lightning darting up a tree
Defiant of local crows and squirrels
A young queen poised along the highest branch
She hits the ground running
Dodges cars with precision timing
Only to escort her pet human home
She curls sweetly by her side and purrs:
"All will be well...
...just give it time...
...just look at me...
...I'm feline fine..."
Photo: the mighty Taz herself

The Inner Big Cat In Me
You evoke
the feline in me
my horoscope's alive
Leo's real
the big cat so proud
who prowls, with agility
he purrs as we do sleep
content, hell bent
and strong with sharp
white teeth
I walk with you , I belong
along with prestine
on my own, I lose the tone
I feel but can't be seen
you bring the big cat out
out in me .

Villanelle Nr.03 — Extreme Content
Creative minds can be quite bent,
direct attention many ways ...
the cat stretched out, extreme content
and what the person really meant
perception twists to suit its gaze:
creative minds can be quite bent
but sensing life as heaven sent
propels you to a different phase.
The cat stretched out, extreme content
cared not if seen as insolent
was happy just to “be”, and laze --
creative minds can be quite bent
and miss the point, the main event: ...

cats don't love
(a villanelle)
I am a cat in case you couldn’t tell
should not have chosen cat, if I had say
for cats don’t love, just love the way we smell
with feline skill and feline soul I dwell
tight in your lap to purr and lick all day
I am a cat in case you couldn’t tell
so you would stroke and rub my warmth as well
enticing me to never go astray
for cats don’t love, just love the way we smell
then when we’re close, as if in love we fell
just like my kind, I'll let you know my spray
I am a cat in case you...

Black Fat
I had a strange dream last night
I walked in a haze to the window
The sky was chocolate brown
With whipped cream clouds
And streaks of cappuccino
The sun was a violent blue
I hesitantly looked out of my window
It all felt and looked odd
A fat black crow clumsily landed
On my slate topped wall
He looked around then began to call
He began to dance a crow dance
And stopped as he was joined
On the wall by a grey squirrel
The fat black crow spoke
In a crow language that
I could not easily understand
He gestured to the squirrel...

On my slate topped wall

Sam The Melancholic Cat
My man’s best friend was Sam the cat
He sat alone; alone on his mat
Circumstances had got him down
A glum expression, a constant frown
His life felt empty, full of strife
One way out, he’d take his own life
He found some pills under the chair
Someone left them lying there
He lapped them up, he wolfed them down
He waited feeling quite run down
Packet label, don’t know what it means
He’d overdosed on jelly beans
He now had more to undergo
One life gone and eight to go
He found himself a length of rope
This was now his second...
He sat alone; alone on his mat
Circumstances had got him down
A glum expression, a constant frown
His life felt empty, full of strife
One way out, he’d take his own life
He found some pills under the chair
Someone left them lying there
He lapped them up, he wolfed them down
He waited feeling quite run down
Packet label, don’t know what it means
He’d overdosed on jelly beans
He now had more to undergo
One life gone and eight to go
He found himself a length of rope
This was now his second...

On Cats and Dogs
The silent saunter of a cat
Is like the shadow of a cloud
Slowly creeping across the landscape.
A dogs pace is like a fire engine
Clamoring down the street
With all bells, alarms, and sirens sounding.
Is like the shadow of a cloud
Slowly creeping across the landscape.
A dogs pace is like a fire engine
Clamoring down the street
With all bells, alarms, and sirens sounding.
