About This Poem

My Sweet One

a razzmatazz sheen
the feel of silken softness -
petting ebony

you settle near me
small paws wrapped around my hand. . . 
your lullaby purr

my happiness
when you nuzzle me. . .
can I be your catnip?


A cat is of nature, right? heehee. 
For the  (double) Valentine Haiku & 1 questionku Poetry Contest
of Poet Destroyer A
