There's something about a cat that's gentle, kind, with mystic eyes that see into your soul. He seems to know the thoughts inside your mind, because you see, he's really in control. He guards your love to take as he sees fit. That's not to say he doesn't surely care. He bonds himself to you with love and wit; to not give in, you wouldn't think or dare. How treasured are the times you hold him near... with arms and paws wrapped 'round, he licks your nose, as soothing purrs and sweet meows so dear fill up your heart with warmth to ease your woes. There's something about a cat that's gentle, kind... a better furry friend you'll never find. August 9, 2018 For Contest, Your Favorite Animal, Sponsored by Gregory Paul

:) Our kitties really do have the upper hand, er, upper paw? It's so easy to spoil them, but look at all the love they give us in return. Enjoyed your poem, Sandra! Congrats on your win in Brian's contest, Carolyn

Cats are special indeed. I love they way they take ownership of you and not the other way around. A lovely sonnet Sandra, deserving of Second place! : )
