Silken Stripes

A Purrsonal Symphony in Velvet

By Lylonie BennettPublished 2 years ago β€’ 1 min read

In the heart of your home, a tiger cat roams,

With a coat that tells tales in earthy tones.

Short hair that whispers in hues of brown,

A patchwork of white, a regal crown.

𓃠

In the soft glow of your dwelling's light,

My feline friend moves, a creature bright.

Brown and white stripes in a dance so sweet,

A tapestry of fur, a cozy retreat.

𓃠

Feel the texture, as smooth as a breeze,

Soft strand that rustle with gentle ease.

Under my fingers, a symphony plays,

A tactile journey through tiger cat days.

𓃠

Amidst the quiet, in moments rare,

My short-haired tiger lounges with flair.

In the canvas of fur, a story unfolds,

Of warmth, of friendship, as times enfolds.

𓃠

Moonlight spills on stripes, a soft allure,

As your pet tiger cat, Terrance,

Weaves a tale in shades, both brown and white,

A companion's fur, a comforting light.

𓃠

Here's to the tiger with a coat so fine,

A companion cherished, a friend benign.

In the haven of home, where memories stir,

Cherish the smoothness of my pet tiger's fur.
