***This is a poem I wrote in 2008 about my cats. (Guess which one is in the picture :)***
My cat Shadow is…
Softer then velvet.
My cat Dart is…
Loud as a seagull.
My cat shadow is
Cute as a kitten.
My cat Dart is
Dirty as a rat and
Crazy as a warthog.
My cat shadow is
Smokey as a grey cloud
And sweet as a candycane.
My cat Dart is
Spoiled like royalty
And silly as a goose.
My cat shadow is
Fiercer than a lion
And her purr is as loud as a hurricane.
My cat Dart is
Wonky as a sea bird
And hiper as Silas and greedy like a pig.
My cat Shadow is
Loveable as your first stuffed animal
And most of the time, silent as a swan
Even though my cats are all those things
Dart is stil soft as velvet,
cute as a meerkat
and his purr is as loud as thunder.
And Shadow is
Greedy like a gold miner,
Demanding as a wedding planner,
And her claws are as sharp as a knife.
G.R. 2008
