Kitty, Kitty

here kitty, kitty, is all you need say, if you're real lucky, they'll come your way they know your voice, your sounds, when they're, not the only kitty around they love to eat, groom, to play, their favorite pastime, find a sunbeam, sleep away the day when they're prowling, running, jumping, in their own little world, who knows? maybe its catnip, maybe its squirrels they cuddle and purr, cute little bundles of fur, a mind of their own, fascination, and bewilderment, abound, uncanny intelligence, reasons for keeping, kitty around they have a, favorite person, that one, they most love, in appreciation, use their favorite things as a scratching post stretching, yawning, time for a nap, awaiting night, the time, they naturally hunt, slithering room to room looking for prey, occasionally, to pounce, when their shadow, gets in the way, seldom successful, they really don't care, they know, you're the best hunter, they'll eat well today we love them, that's a fact, tis strange indeed, they produce nothing of value, bring in no pay, only their nine lives, to survive, day to day don't bother to call them, they seldom come, rather, take a message, get back to you later, when their sunbeam is done these finicky hairballs, of teeth and sharp nails, why do we love them, bring them into our home, these furry little creatures, with attention deficit syndrome, say here kitty, kitty, you'll question no more life without kitty, for even one day, don't have to think about it, there just, ain't, no way here kitty, kitty

Congratulations Mac, You wrote well! Your “Cat Tails” contest entry, sponsored by: Constance La France is among the winners, First place!!! The part of your poem that I like best is, "....slithering room to room looking for prey, occasionally, to pounce, when their shadow..." Due to allergies, my cats have to stay outside. I can just imaging them inside like this. You did at great job letting your creativity flow. Keep up the good writing. SMILES… Dane Ann
