Notes About The Poem

Purr-Purr-Purr

Waddling in like a drunken shadow, my portly belly cannot pass unseen. And once spotted, I meow my hello regal-like, reaffirming I'm their queen. I'm finicky and won't use my litter unless it's paw-print deep and freshly cleaned. And yet, though somewhat slow, I'm no quitter, keeping myself meticulously preened. I'm attended by my subjects, my two friends, who have pampered and groomed me from the start. And I trust they will until my life ends, for we have bonded, heart, to heart, to heart. And when one brushes my ebony fur, I snuggle in their lap and purr, purr, purr.

Ah, a clever, cute write, Emile. Nothing equals the feel of a cat, well-fed and purring, snuggled against you, unless it be someone you love. I like your poem and wish you the best in the contest.
