My lap is warmed
By your presence
Please don't wander away
My foot may numb, my tea gets cold
Small prices that I pay
For the time with you is never taken for granted
I am blessed
With purrs and furs you leave behind
Woven into my soul and dress

My foot my numb, my tea gets told - small prices you pay. Absolutely beautiful. Nicely Done!!
This is so sweet! I have three cats beside me as I read this. (I wish I had a lint roller because their hairs are all over my sweater.) I didn't even think to write about my pets for this challenge. I have read a ton of poems about family members, self-love, and mostly about romantic love. This is the first take on the challenge I've read about kitties! ⚡💙⚡
Absolutely beautiful - Shows you what the love of a kitty with purrs and furs can give you. Beautiful Done!!
A sweet poem… liked: “I am blessed With purrs and furs you leave behind Woven into my soul and dress”🤣
