A Cat's Breath

whiskers slowly twitch
           velvety breaths in the soft might 
           blessing my midnight

Love your depiction of your cat's soft breath and movements in the midnight hour. Thank you for your comment on my jazz poem. Have you written about jazz? Let me know if you have, I would love to read. Enjoy your day, my friend. ~ John

I write one about being in a jazz spit in the Marina itself. I forgot the name. Cat's like jazz are so mellow. Speaking of music, I went to a party for Dule Ellington in SF. It was an intimate gathering, I met Erroll Garner at Loyola U in Chicago. As per Latin Jazz, I used to go to a small cluB IN Sf. He's notorious for Orfeo Negro, Or Black Orheus, my FAV track. Almost lunch yay...Pangie xx PS. Loved musicians as boyfriends,, woo Hoo..sax p,ayers and drummers. Love entertainers. I bore easily. Lol. Pangie

You must have written this one for my dear old cat Jeff. He sleeps near my head and twitches his whiskers waking me up and purring and snoring. But I wouldn't know what to do without him. He's a great companion - Bob
