Calico Tequila Sunrise

How do cats know what we need? It's so chilly this morning, here in oh so still, golden, wine country. I'm lying here snug on the couch. Santorini-blue quilt, iPad, coffee, writing poetry. Here comes my warm, calico coverlet! Jumping up on me. Ah, her gold eyes like a warm fireplace glow... Her master pieced painted body. The magical ebb and flow of blessed warmth on my thighs, oh! I call her, a bit of heaven on earth. An angel, if you will, in disguise. My calico, Irene, feline majesty. My sunrise wine country surprise. Sun Spirit, painting all the houses a bright gold. * Title inspired by my beautiful daughter, Maria Elena.* 10/2/2020

Very beautiful, Pangie; love them. Pardon my sparse appearances here lately...just doing other creative stuff that I never did when I was younger and a bit more spry (when it is easier to learn)--newly become fascinated with woodworking -- turning, carving and like. Getting the proper equipment, and mentors takes time. Most people into these activities, I have quickly found, are more than over-joyed to share their time and craft experience.
