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.

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.

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.
