The Love Rug

THE LOVE RUG I have myself a love rug; it sits right in front of the fire It’s a very nice snowy white; and, it’s full of love desire It is plush and alluring, the type that catches your eye Inviting you to come on in; have yourself a smooch lie But . . . Before I even get my feet on it, in comes that darn cat Who within seconds is lying on its fur-lined smug back Now; I am playing devil advocate with a flamin’ irate cat Who has just stuck its claws into me being a total brat I am now high up on the sofa; with plasters on my feet As the flamin’ cat lulls about on the love rug; right neat Indiana Shaw . . . : (

I love poems about cats and how they rule the house. My daughter has one who makes the whole family cater to him. He's too cute to be angry with. I love your poem Indiana. Aloha, Connie : )
