Black cat

“Cat hair all over!” Gun Roswell

Black cat

A black cat sat
In the middle of the street in ease
She did not move an inch
Not even in a tight pinch
Passers by needed to slide
This cat sitting so wide

Proud face and nose up
Nothing would her mood stop
Gazing at the skies as far as the crow would fly
The black cat’s attitude was snide
Sassy and bossy, with fur so glossy
She was the owner, the queen of this street

Cats-a-lot

“Time spent with cats is never wasted” Sigmund Freud

cats-a-many

Cats-a-lot

Cats in stripes
Cats all white
Cats that are black
Cats which are gray
Cats in a six pack
Cats who are stray

Take one home
You’re never alone
The time spent
With your cat
Even if a chat
Is never complicated
And never wasted

Cat Lisa with Mona

“The cat on the lap of the known lady, what is that about?” Gun Roswell

Cat Lisa with Mona

The cat was laying on
The lap of the lady quite known
Captured in an image painted

A long time ago, by
A renaissance man familiar to us all
How did we not notice

That darn cat before, sitting
Comfortably, smiling slightly, just like
The lady we all seen

Before, but as it is
There now, the cat with a tail
Will tell you new tales

Cat of Saturday

“Cats, the rulers of the world” Gun Roswell

Cat of Saturday

Sitting on a chair, this
Is my lair, I am the cat
In white hair, look at

Me now, and before me
Bow, I am the ruler of this
This seat and this street

Worship me, bring me food
And maybe if I feel like it
I will let you pet

Me, but not before its
Late, because I don’t want anyone seeing
Me being a pussy cat,

After all I have a
Reputation to maintain, and that cannot be
Stained by any hooman, ever

Ode to Freakish Felines on International Cat Day

Posted in International Cat Day

A black cat crossing your path signifies that the animal is going somewhere” Groucho Marx

Ode to Freakish Felines

Freakishly feline
Or a soft purring ball
How easy to unwind
Soon to a sleep fall
Hypnotized
By those wide eyes
The limber steps
Command respect
You can never own them
Just borrow for a while
But rest assured, the little gems
Will leave you in big smiles

“Five cats and a woman. That is all I need in life” Alejandro Jodorowsky

Caturday

The tourist of a foreign land
Came here to our strand
We let them snap some photos
And for them, strike a few poses
Scratching our backs
There is no lack
Of many a treats
Neatly we sit
Until all the pix
Are snapped
And the strangers all gone
Then we, just run along

“Five cats and a woman. That is all I need in life” Alejandro Jodorowsky

Caturday

Cats of a foreign land
Sitting on a lava strand
Too hot to fish
Too hot for a stroll
Guess, the best bet is
To hang around the bowl
On this lazy sunny day
Nothing else to do but lay

The Girl and her Cat

“Cats are like music: It is foolish to try to explain their worth to those who do not appreciate them”

The Girl and her Cat

Would you look at that!
The girl with the cat
On the sofa, laying flat

No time to chase a rat
No time for a little chat
Not even an eyelid will bat

No time for the internet
Nothing playing on the cassette
Nothing moves, on the chess set

If you want to bet
The only comment you get
“What the heck,
Are you staring at!”

Cats, Dogs and a few Ladies

“Never try to outstubborn a cat” Robert A. Heinlein

Cats, Dogs and a few Ladies

Cats, dogs and ladies
All live under the same roof
A gentle mix of meows and woofs
Added with some ifs, buts and maybes

caturday-3

A playful sparring match
For the appetite to catch
Before dinner time calls
And they arrive on all fours

caturday-4

What we can all agree upon
Is a comfortable seat to cuddle on
All gathering into the same spot
All together tight as a knot
