a king.
Tail twitching.
Underneath him
below the chair,
bat, bat, bat.
Swish, swish.
Meow
G-R-O-W-L
swat, swat
paws peaking up
through the back of the chair.
Tail thumping.
G-R-O-W-L
The little one reaches up
testing the waters
trying to catch the tail.
The king,
disgusted,
departs for calmer territory.
This is a cute poem about your cats. I could imagine it. They are funny to watch.

ReplyDeleteCats are fun to watch. I'm wondering if your pug is friendly with the cats.
ReplyDeleteIt's such fun to watch cats and I can just picture those peeking paws! My own cats are geriatric and not as prone to pounce and play anymore. Thanks for sharing yours!
ReplyDeleteThis is so much about cats. I loved the last line about the king departing for calmer territory. Cats can be so entertaining and your poems catches some of their antics.
ReplyDeleteYou have cats down pat - your king reminds me of mine.
