Sunshine
Cats enjoy sunshine
bathing, basking, golden-eyed
sensuously warm.
Warm evenings
Luxoriously
she stretches in the sunlight.
Oh! To be a cat
On My Shoulder
Tiny cat purring;
a sonorous cathedral
organ in my ear.
-------
Kitten in Sunshine
My stomach isn't
dirty but I must lick it
med...it...at...ive...ly.
---------
Head on paws, the cat
sleeps. Fur pulses, whiskers quiver.
Peace personified.
---------
Kitten chases light
Dog chases kitten - snarl, hiss
swat, happy tail wagging.
-----
Softness of my cat's
paw caresses my cheek, claws
withdrawn, innocent.
------
At heart a hunter
she guards my home, clawing wasps,
spiders to save me.
-------
Blue eyes soulfully
wondering where I have gone.
Siamese cat awaits.
------
My hand on your side,
I feel your silent purr. Life
force, touching, linking.
