Jazz For Razz

Snazzy jazzy Razzmatazzy, new black cat of mine curled up cozy on my bed - what makes you so fine? Snazzy jazzy Razzmatazzy, small and smooth and sleek. Guests come calling; in you slink just to take a peek! Snazzy jazzy Razzmatazzy, languidly you preen. Gaze with eyes I can't define. Are they gold or green? Snazzy jazzy Razzmatazzy, now a little fat. All you do is lay around - I'm ok with that! Snazzy jazzy Razzmatazzy, as I stroke your fur, start your rhythm warm and dear. Bring that jazzy purr! Snazzy jazzy Razzmatazzy, great is my relief that I found a pet like you sweet beyond belief! (slight variation of 5/7 trochee poetry form) For the jazz poetry contest of Giorgio Venetopoulos

Love the lines written here. I am up and on my feet after a week in bed with the flu. Have some type of rash on my hands and not sure what that is from-more of an allergic rash. love phyl

Languidly you preen, yes sounds like you, (winners circle). Gaze with eyes I can't define, yes sounds like you (behind dark glasses). Are they green or gold, yes sounds like you, (still a mystery). I got a good feline about this poem lol. Take care, Richard
