Even My Dictionary is for Cats...
by Ed Matlack → (All Poetry by Ed Matlack)

I go to look up a word, and what do I see, another cat breed...

even my dictionary is for cats…


 


I go to my dictionary to look up a word,


And the first word I see is tabby,


A kind of cat I know, no I am not here, crabby…


 


I just want to know what is it with cats,


Cats here, cats there, cats & cats,


My nostrils they do flare…


 


Never anything about dogs,


Just the felines of the species,


Tabby’s, Calico’s, Alley & Siamese,


All beautiful, all makers of my allergies to go a-choo…


 


So now you know why I can’t be around,


As most cat hairs just make me go outbound,


As far away as I can get,


Someplace they are not anywhere around…

(((ed)))

LOL--i say the same thing about dogs...you see dog shows on t.v. all the time...eukanuba, westminster...no cat shows. programs on the animal planet feature dogs much more than cats.

but then, cats shed...cats make you sneeze...cats scratch up the furniture (and you)...cats hiss like snakes...cats are attitudes, with tail...yep, can see why you love dogs. dogs ARE man's best friend

and i'm proud to know ruffering rufuz *woof*--your best bud, and my doggie nephew AWWWWWWWWWWWWW

cute write! :)

(((HUGS))) and love, karla. :)

LOL at Lori's coment

I can understand why you don't like kitties; kitties make you sneeze. NOT good! But glad you do have Rufuz; he makes a better companion for you!

Cute write, enjoyed!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your cat-lovin' (and some dog-lovin') Texas friend, Karen Lynn. :D
