Dear Old Heather


(Inspired by Silent One's limerick,  "Queen Of Her Stage" ) 

There once was a canary full of rage.
Who shrewdly trapped a sly cat in her cage.
without a feather ruffled
Kittie's meows he muffled,
she now ruled the roost as queen of her stage!

There was a time when Kittie was nasty 
oh that little one could be quite feisty 
but now she eats truffles 
without any cuddles 
she sits behind bars eating nothing tasty

There once was a cat who ruffled Tweet's feather  
a Kittie from hell who could never tether 
sometimes they did  fight
who was wrong who was right  
the only one who knew was dear old Heather   !

I am so happy that I inspired you and you wrote two great limericks to follow on form it!

Dear Rose, You unfold a charming tale of feline rivalry and the triumph of cunning. I loved how your poem captures the whimsical dynamics between the canary and the cat with delightful wit. The imagery of Heather, the wise observer, adds depth to the narrative, leaving a smile on the reader's face. It's a playful homage to the intricacies of animal relationships and the power of strategy. - Blessings, Daniel
