09-03-22 Cats

The big clock struck one,
another year has passed on,
but he is still here.

He’s counting the years,
more in memories than years,
and there are many.

The cat licked her paw,
nonchalantly but watchful,
and ready to pounce.

Reaching tenderly,
as not wanting to offend,
with her claws ready.

The winds swirled the snow,
as they all looked for shelter,
on the mountain side.

The sound of its wings,
can’t be heard as it’s so sift,
flying tree to tree.

This is what I’ve got,
I’ve got a funny feeling,
Spring is on its way.

The sunshine is warm,
I love its heat on my back,
and flowers blooming.

The dark trail awaits,
ever willing others there,
to try their magic.

The wind shakes the trees,
with a breezy chilly slap,
making leaves fall off.

The rim of the cup,
bears the traces of her lips,
so warm and tender.

He keeps on writing,
long after the ribbon broke,
still indenting words.

The sad awful truth,
of that store stale jam donut,
no one ever wants.

07/03/22 The Written

The count down begins,
and I cannot stop it now,
nor could I ever.

The thrill of romance,
the little talk, the cuddles,
and the in-betweens.

I am loving it,
and grammatically correct,
so what’s the problem?

I’m counting two three,
and doing a little waltz,
and three four, no more.

The thrill of romance,
the little talk, the cuddles,
and the in-betweens.

I went to London,
to Fleet Street for a meeting,
that went on too long.
