A cat

Meggy the cat.


Poem Artwork

Meggy the cat

Lay under the window

Licking her paws

And enjoing the sun.

 

Suddenly an arrogant fly

From outside boomed

Over Meggy made circles

And through the window zoomed.

 

Meggy thought that the fly

Is exactly like birds

And to window jumped

With all of her legs.

 

But flies use the wings

To fall not on earth

And Meggy flew down

Looking for death.

 

Once more she forgot

That she lived so high -

Seven lives she still got

But to jumping she'd bye.

Hello Jack,

I like this poem very much in its simple lines and light hearted message, really refreshing. Glad it's not "game over" yet for Meggy, the score being 7 lives left.

Oh what a precious photo! Oh the poor sweet kittie, glad she is okay with a few more lives tucked away. Goodness I have seen what they are capable of and sometimes it makes me hold my breath as I gasp! We have three very active little ladies....

Be always safe,
Karen
