Ah, yes, this golden oldie. I believe I mentioned we have a new cat in the house - a black kitten with a snowflake splotch on her chest and a dab of white on one paw. She likes both nip and fish, but, following your advice I never serve both together. Bev has named her (what else) Snowflake. Love, daver

Is this the "Fiddler on the Roof"? I like this fantasy - reminds me of Tolkien's poem about the "The Man in the Moon came down too soon" Peace and Love Matthew Anish

Doggies, Mikki! I knew y'all'd like this fiddlin' poem. When I got to the chain saw part I knew I'd have to soften the piece a bit. We saw a movie called Dredd. - blood and gore from beginning to the end. My advice. If you don't like blood dripping from the theater seat, don't see Dredd. Love, daver

In honor of your Fiddler's cat, I am now writing a Halloween poem about a graveyard fiddler. Something is buried in the cornfield - Moo, ha,ha,ha! Love, daver

EEEE, Hah! I wonder - would that there kitty play at our county fair. We could spoon and dish up something at the pie contest table. Yers trooly, Clem Tassle.

Like this magnanimous Cat I like the rewards that ensue from fatigue, namely satisfaction of enduring thresholds met with enthussiasm - though I prefer Malbec wine - this piece gives me hope in the night release my friend - J.A.B. %

Ah, a brand new one from your ingenious pen and what a treasure it is. I picture Puss in Boots doing the honors and the violin sobbing and soaring with sound to change the world. What a piece of magic this is Michelle, your imagination takes me to magic places! Love, Elizabeth

For sure, this kitty had a bite too much of nip, a swallow too much of Bordeaux. What a wild concerto he played. This old dog laughed and sat in amazement, loving every note. Poem - Allegro con brio. You be something else, Mikki. Love, daver

oh my gosh, this is genius, Michelle. To take that old nursery rhyme and turn it into such a unique and imaginative tale. Superb ending on this one. a new FAVE for me. Glad to see you posted a new one at last and that was so special!

This is a fabulous write! I really enjoyed reading this poem this afternoon! I liked the cleverness of using a cat for the fiddler's pet, in the moonlight too! Wonderful piece, Great Work!!
