Stripe

"Stripe" For no particular reason The clouds cleared And the sun shone bright and the month of old snow melted enough to reveal half of the mud beneath. For no particular reason a neighborhood cat took a stroll across the dirty brown ridges of ice on the tree lawns, across the finally dry street, up the drive. Without a care in its head. The Feline lept up onto the just washed car and bathed on the roof, in the sun, just to drive the dogs in the house insane. For no particular reason The sparkling clean car stood like a Palimino in the sun, oozing a Stripe of muddy paw prints Centered from bumper to bumper, Readiness for the next war Of road salt, and snow and grey traffic For no particular reason at all.
