Ten Cat Poems
my cat and I
slow blinking
our love
***
the sweat pools
cat sleeping on my lap
hundred-degree day
***
stalking shadows shifting in the breeze my cats
***
my cat can hear
me open tuna
from a floor away
***
nearly impossible
to start the day
with a cat on my lap
***
my cats
go crazy for
fish tacos
***
my cats
batting off the counter
bemused-amused
***
easy to drift off
when the warm cat curled on
your lap is snoring
***
outside for a treat
grazing on the green grass
cat salad
***
taking down
my late cat's picture from my
mini fridge at school
back-to-school
heartache
