Notes About The Poem

''snuggles''


My furry friend is a little five pound grey cat,
     And within her soul there is so much happiness;
She runs like a streak this way and that way,
          And then of course, must have a quiet moment.

But, oh my, she can play for hours and hours,
      She leaps and runs and spins in swirling circles;
There is a particular white play mouse she adores,
          Carries it in her mouth, I even find it in my bed.

Oh, how she loves her scratching post in the sun,
     Sometimes she is hanging up side down, meow;
And did I mention the balls she bats all around,
          Then she flings herself on the sofa beside me.

And with a contented sigh she snuggles close,
      We can stay like that for hours and hours;
And then, she starts the play all over again,
          When it is time for bed, she curls up in a ball.

                                   puuuuurrrrrrr .....

Ian, the contest is called Furry Friend, what did you want me to write about, a rat... and infantile is okay, I still have a lot of child within me . . . and I am quite proud that I can see the world with the eyes of child at times... thanks for visiting
