Brian Sambourne Poet Rhyme

Feline Filler

Cat lights on the table, bling!
Can opener growl to open a tin
Tuna glide pounce for a troubadour sing
Cat stretches full length
A paw to each shoulder
A nuzzle to my neck now bolder
Soft blending purrs, caressing
Soft, slow lane nestling
Solicitous whimsical beauty
Self advertising cutie
Insular world of feline grace
Meal ticket playful embrace,
           a no default risk
Like a heart-felt smooch, brisk
Best hope for survival
          in scents of sweet revival
          when a tin can squeal
          is a laurel of love to steal
          for a status high creature
          curled, contented
          in fishy food cuisine.

Jennifer Fenn January 31, 2022 at 7:31 PM Love this! I’m a cat person too. I have one named Charlotte. How many do you have? Brian Sambourne January 31, 2022 at 7:57 PM Hello Jennifer, So nice of you to comment. Two friends of mine owned Garfield the tabby cat. I'd often look after their cat + dog. This is my homage to Garfield, the affectionate feline that he was. Sadly, he has passed. Be well. Sincerely, Brian
