Notes About The Poem

The Cat of the Poet Speaks



The cat speaks,, listen!

I recline here,cozily staring at you.
Lost in the windows of your mind.
Penning, you do all the day through.
As a poet’s pet, I am sweet and kind.


Your breath is a lullaby, under the moon.
If any spirit be my Muse, it is surely thee!
Sleeping on my poetic, warm cocoon.
Bringing you love thoughts, ,magically!

A most gracious thank you, Belle! Your name is reminiscent, to me, of the gorgeous women of thee South- so long ago. Flowing gowns, lovely hats. Times of teas and gentleness.! My cat is my Muse. I need to redo the second quatrain…..my error… Pangie

Wow, John, I am impressed. Mt cats seem to be pacifists who read Ala Watts and did New Age Music,)) Loved your comment! Pangie

Good evening from the West Coast. I am so glad you read this. I reread it several times. I see the humanity and beauty in my poetry is about the human heart. Not to impress anyone nor show off how smart I am. If anything to keep me humble and connect with humble souls.ego runs rampant here. The big “I”., obnoxious. There is more to life and being the big-time program winner, being a human being comes first. And I intend keep writing as a human being, and I will not try to be a Poet Laureate moreover…. commit myself to the best,not the seedy part of humanity! Hugs, Pangie xx want to come in here and I am more than lucky..I will outlive many))) especially bloated egos.hugs, Pangie x
