Thoughts...

I'm sleeping in the dishrack

right beside the sink

it's cozy and real private

it gives me time to think

 and when they wash the dishes
I will run away
to sleep inside the sock drawer
until I want to play

 

my name is squeeks they tell me
a special kind of cat
not the cutest, not too smart
but I don't care about that!

 

Dead Duck

Dead duck, lost duck

dropped from baby's hand

lying on the sidewalk

full of dirt and sand

 

No one's coming back for you

no one to take you home

in rain and snow you'll rot away

dying all alone!

Stumpy Proud

Stumpy proud

Stumpy strong

without feet

you hop along

 

other birds

your friends not

mock the feet

that you ain't got!

The Shelter of My Un-Doing

safe and dry... for how long?

Caught in a terrible thunder storm,

I took shelter in the first paper bag I found.

Brilliant! However...

Paper can only withstand rain for a short time and then it wilts!

 

Moral of the story- Don't take shelter in a paperbag during a big storm.

Squeeks - Yoga Cat

Message to the World

Frannee, Squeeks, and Frankee!

I'm napping on the couch

I started all alone

and then my little cat

to the couch did roam

 

he curled up beside me

purring all the while

til Frankee saw him there

and jumped into the pile 

 

and so...

 

 into the afternoon

we lay napping - three

cuddled in a bundle 

catching up on zee's

 

and if....

 

 all the people,

in all the world

could nap just like we do

 

perhaps there'd be

an end to war

and some rested North Americans too!

 

Baby Pigeons

 

Pretty baby birds

so soft and fluffy too!

hatched upon my balcony

cause what was I to do?

I couldn't pitch them overboard

though all my friends did swear

that if I left the eggs to hatch

I'd always have them there

But no I couldn't do it

my little heart did break

at the thought of all that mess

the two eggs they would make

and so I let them stay

to hatch and then to fly

those pretty baby birds

have long since said good-bye!
