A Pet Minichu

Charlotte, you tabby cat,
jumped up to hear some poets read on Zoom awhile.
So you sat,

blocking my screen.
You made the poets there all smile,
you queen!

On cue,
straight through each mile,
you,

Charlotte, you tabby cat,
you made the poets there all smile.
You!

Nice piece Jennifer with lovely rhyme and flow too. We had cats growing up called Jinky and Smokey, always slept at the bottom of my bed and I've written a piece about them titles 'Jinky and Smokey'. Have a great day, Gordon

Cute poem. I have an orange tabby as well. They've got great personalities.

Muse is a great name for a cat, since they inspire poetry and art. Mine is Charlotte Jeannette Emmeline Fenn. I wanted to call her Emmeline, but she came with the name Charlotte. I had a good friend Jeannette who died three years ago, so I wanted to get her name in there too. Hence the long princess name.
