Poetry Friday: Cat by Marilyn Singer

[slayground]

I prefer
warm fur,
a perfect fire
to lie beside,
a cozy lap
where I can nap,
an empty chair
when she's not there.
I want heat
    on my feet
    on my nose
    on my hide.
No cat I remember
dislikes December     inside.

This sums up the current life of one of our barn cats who has found his way inside these past snowy weeks. He has no interest in exploring outside until the snow is gone and I love nothing more than for him to curl up in my lap.

I feel like I have a lot in common with Cat. But she might have a more relaxing carefree life.

Cats are the best.

This poem could have been written by my cat! The cozy fire in our house is a space heater, but he loves it all the same. (So do I!)

Hello to you and your cat! :)

Hello from Bridget

Our pup is our space heater, but her cuddles are on her terms...much like a cat!
