Dear Cat,
Let me count the ways
Wait, no, that’s already been done.
Perhaps I’ll compare you to…
To…to…ugh, nope.
Your crescent eyes
Your silky fur
Wait, no, come back!
I promise I’m trying!
You just don’t know how hard it is
to write a poem about your cat.
What? Hey! No, don’t do that!
OUCH! Why are you biting me?
Hey! No, don’t scratch me!
No, don’t knock that!
Aww, I was still drinking that.
What are you doing now?
No. No, you get down.
No. NO! Get dowjnsjnvjn

Seriously? You think you can write this better?
Oww! Hey, that was uncalled for.
Stop biting me!
Ok, fine, just go away.
I’m going to write about the dog instead.
Hey buddy! Let’s see…
Wait, no, stay! STAY!!
UGH!!!! Gross!
God, now I gotta find a towel.
Love, Mom

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."

This made me laugh out loud! Thank you for that. Unexpected and clever… well done ❤️✨🙏
I love this poem so much. We have 5 dogs and 12 cats. Plus 3 tiny humans. Oh and a bunny. There are more animals than people in this house. To be fair, they are all emotional support animals. Not registered or anything since I own my home. But they are very emotionally supportive when they need to be. Hahah!
So creative! We have two cats so I would relate. Nice work!
Such a cute ode. I love all the allusions!
Aw, loved this so much! You've captured the joy and endless surprise that comes with owning a cat, love it!! 🤗❤️❤️
