My Lady

My cat is a lady. How delicately she creeps along the bed Until, softly purring, she settles on my head! Written by Andrea Dietrich For David Williams' Twenty / Twenty Poetry Contest

Hi Andrea, Just looking up an old one of yours, I had a cat for twenty years, did just as you described only she would settle on my chest, tail in my face lol. I'm really a doggie man myself, and oddly, my favourite was named Lady. I've posted nothing new at mo so don't worry looking, I've nearly finished one, have been busy at work, so getting behind on here. Take care, Richard

Congrats on your win, Andrea! I love cats but this is why I don't have one. I do not get along with cat hair (that, and the cat box). Blessings, Rhonda

I have been heading up a project on Japan (A-bomb) for the last few days and ANYWHO, just now, I TYPED OUT a poem on here and posted it! You believe it? Anyway, it is really raw, and I like it that way!(I was gettin' amped and pissed typing it:) Can you plz let me know if the poem fits any of the cute Forms on the SOup. As U know, I am awful at this task!

I like this one. We have five dogs; consequently, no room for cats or anymore dogs. Our pets keep us sane in an insane world. Take care, Jancarl
