Michelle Faulkner Poet Limerick

Little Miss Clingy

My Little Miss does not do 'aloof'
One kitty dash as I sit, and poof!
Lap kneading, too greedy
Head butting, so needy
I declare love, but she demands proof-

No Sunday sleep-ins will she allow
Every 6 a.m. is time for chow!
Pawing, purring alarm
Furry butt on my arm
No snooze button shuts off her meow-

Andrea Dietrich May 1, 2020 at 2:59 PM oh you got one of THOSE cats!! I had one a long time ago. It was annoying how she woke me for her breakfast BUT I now miss her and wish she had never died. I never found again a cat so loving as my Callie Cat. Michelle Faulkner May 1, 2020 at 6:57 PM Yes, she is right there every morning, and her meow sounds like "Me - Now!" But I love her and will miss her when the time comes, like you miss your Callie Cat-
