Precious kittens move my heart -
I’ve known this since small.
Whether still or in crazed dart,
they enthrall my all.
Silk furs, whiskers, purrs -
all make resistance depart
while cat love occurs.

Your "Whiskers On Kittens" is a lovely/wonderful write. I had many precious kittens as a child but none now. "Good Luck" I also did this contest. Have a lovely day writing away.................

I have Raja, my Siamese love who has blessed my life since he was 6 months and is now 12. Last night, he slept in my arms which is such an awesome love feeling. I can't bear the thought of ever being w/o him. Poetry hugs ... CayCay

Yes, they are amusing, little bundle-cuddles. I am blessed to have the love of a male Siamese, the 'personal assistant' cats who must be included in everything (wants to sit on keyboard right now) and so very smart. I've often stared at your cat pic, he's so fiercely intent I can't help but appreciate the magnificence of him. Thanks for commenting ... CayCay
