The Cat's Meow

"The Cat’s Meow" Her name was Lady Lucky was his name She purred around his Whispers She dined on Deep Delight. They were morning, noon and night Purrrrrrrrrrrfect imperfect He circled all Her red mistakes a pure secret a Keeper's trait the cat’s meow sends a kiss and …. again - rolls over again and gains a purrrfect again smiles Cheshire like warm heart legs curled around a hidden smile a terrible... sin intertwined goodnight (LadyLabyrinth / 2020)

Absolutely wonderful new creation my friend. We are in tune in a way, as I wrote a verse in my new blog poem referencing Chesire cat on the same day you gifted us this gem.. And Justin adopted a one-eye stray cat last summer he named Bob. We all now love it and feed it.. It lives in the woods here and refuses to come inside our house.. A fav.. God bless..

Yes, true writing is in our blood and I want Justin to explore the path it can take him on. Not because it is my desire but because he chooses it and sees it as his own blessing. Thus he will get support and encouragement from me always! Your two cats were surely an immense joy to you. As is Bob our adopted cat to us.. A shame that somebody would mistreat Crackers but we know evil in this world never rests, never stops and is eternally on the prowl. IT always seeks to harm the innocent, be that animal or human. This dark world takes no prisoners. It chews up all that it can. God bless...

ha! love it ... "Bob", such a beaut name. We have a Robert (Bob) in my family (Uncle, ha! Bob's your Uncle and he is). I had two cats many years ago both males, who I named Rupert & Leopold. Distinguished names, I thought worthy of their individual demeanours. They were later re-named Jatz & Crackers (so much better, however I didn't think so at the time). Someone cut Cracker's whiskers off with a pair of scissors.Never found the culprit, probably just as well. G' about 14mths at the time, I suspect the bigger kid next door.

Refreshing and delightful to learn that your son Justin has shown a keen interest in writing, creating stories of great depth (I am sure) and of imagination (to cope with your lives at present); you must encourage - it will transport him during the current journey his mother is commencing - it will assist both yourself and your son. Your wife will cherish reading some of your more positive poems and stories and it will encourage her fight. Writing in your family, is the bond of Love that brings you All closer - and that is a beautiful thing to nurture. Love and strength to you, your wife and son - as always, your friend, Leanne. x
