Maybelle the Kitten is alive and well and living with me...for as long as God allows. |

Running here
Running there
She's a blur to the eye
And she's into everything
That isn't taped
Or nailed shut;
Nothing is safe
From her curious nose
Or her inquisitive paws;
What are kitten toys
When there are so many other,
More interesting things to be had,
Like fragile Christmas ornaments,
Generations old,
Or rolls of toilet paper--
What fun!
Then, suddenly,
In mid-play,
She drops as if shot
Into a fast sleep,
Her tiny kitten batteries charging
For the next assault,
And I am left amazed
And bemused
By the abruptness
Of the quiet
That settles
In her wake.

Oh, how absolutely adorable and precious! Be sure to give Maybelle lots of hugs and kisses from us too! Now the art of making memories begins. Oh well I understand the curiosity and games that will be played, all in the name of shared love...
Be always safe,
Karen |
