A Beautiful Cat

A beautiful cat Is sitting near me She stares in a trance At the dark brick wall Looking at something That I can not see Her coat is golden With some white and black The eyes are golden Lights up in the dark So she sees clearly She prowls all night long This cat I speak of She is beside me Here she will stay Keeps me company She looks so real Just on a cushion

I gather that you do not like cats. That is alright not everyone likes cats. Some people do not like dogs either. I like both.Have a nice day my friend.

What a charming poem Darlene - I should get a 'pet' cat like yours as I am allergic to their fur so I can't have a real one. I would love to see a picture of her on the cushion! :-) hugs jan xx

Hi Dar, What is the name of your cat? Is the cat real or just an ornament on a cushion? Your six line stanzas are outstanding.
