Constance La France Poet Verse

Oh, Today

 
~*~

it is raining in the garden
chirping, peeping birds are joyful in the greenery
and in my cozy window
two cats survey the garden goings on

perched contently atop my bookcase
placed below the window
whiskers flickering, deep green eyes alert
so intent on something invisible

delicate and soft they step
among my potted plants for a space
but soon their interest fades
of the garden and it's hidden treasures

and face, ear and paw washing
takes all their consideration
oh, nothing is more delightfully wonderful
than two cats, today
