Green Eyes Like My Cat

I bargained with God please don't send me back,
unless I can have green eyes like my cat..
I also requested brown stripes on my back.
Earth tones blend in, a well-known fact.
My final petition was to have four legs.
It's much more efficient when chasing stags.
If I must return for one final tour.
Don't make me a human.
I won't endure.

Sotto Poet Date: 7/6/2023 1:12:00 PM Nancy, your ability to artistically depict a range of emotions through metaphors is truly remarkable. I can discern the presence of intellect in your words, resonating deeply within me. Login to Reply Nancy Kaufman Date: 7/7/2023 8:32:00 AM Hi Sotto, The last and quickest write was this one. I was starring into Samantha's gorgeous emerald eyes with black flecks when I decided to write it. Have a blessed weekend. I haven't any wifi at home since yesterday.
