Notes About The Poem

Purr-Fect House Cat

There's an old woman that lives in a house full of cats;
they're all so lovable and fat, they will steal your heart.
Forever playing about the house with a stuffed mouse,
she is known as the Craz Cat Woman that's lost her cart.

In love with her cats; they're always close and under foot,
meow, meow, and purr sounds expressing contentment.
Treated as spoiled young, let them have the run of the house,
wishing for coziness, hoping for noise abatement.

Hounds heard outside the window, they stir in excitement,
however, at night at ease they dream of birds and mice.
You can bet that round her house, there's not even a mouse;
never allowed out, at times forget to playing nice.

With a loving smile and tenderhearted affection,
they all starving for her attention, she brings caring
satisfaction; they are so many and still counting,
a world of ecstasy, she is willing and sharing.

My best friend became a crazy cat lady as she aged and Alzheimer's claimed her. Her one concern was for her cats. She no longer remembers me, but I feel sure she remembers them in her new home at the nursing facility. I enjoyed your winning poem Eve. Congratulations on your deserving second placement! : )

Lovely piece, Eve. But then, I'm a cat owner, and terribly bias :) Viv x
