Tuxedo Cat

My old tuxedo cat
   climbs again 
onto my lap
   seeking the comfort 
of my petting   rubbing hands,
just as so   my heart   seeks 
   the dear comfort 
of her soft gentle
   purrings.

Such a sweet, comforting write, Sarah! I have 4 cats, but unfortunately none of them will sit in my lap. They are very independent. Blessings, Kim M
