Feline Understanding

Where is it? I asked,

that gift I gave you,

perfect for your imagination

and paws to throw around.


For days it’s been missed,

not missing;

your eyes playing with

my questioning

like fate

hiding what it has in store.


But, really.

Do you understand what I’m asking?


It seems so, when

you deliver

all that I wish for,

laid at my feet—

as instinctively

knowing to leave me to

my wonder

and that it’s time to

take a nap.

Thought it was time for something a little lighter, based on a special Oscar-kitty moment that happened just the other day. Cats never cease to amaze me!


You might notice that I’ve made some changes to my blog – well, I’ve added some tabs and sub ‘tabs’ to the menu at the top, including pages about my novel, A House Near Luccoli and reviews that kind readers have written for it. I’ve added a page for the sequel, which is still being written but nearing the finish-line, where you will find a little excerpt. There’s a page for my illustrated flower book and another for my recently published Kindle short stories. And one devoted to reviews I have done for the novels and poetry anthologies of other writers.


As a reminder: reviews are always very helpful in promoting an author’s work, which holds true for shorter works and poetry, as well as novels. I am very willing to return the favor.


Hope you enjoy looking around. Have a wonderful week everyone! Blessings. Peace.
