My Poetry - FELINES




FELINES

Back arched high
Toes stretched wide,
Furry tail
Swishing elegance

Back and forth
Rumbling purrs
Nose to nose
Sharing romance

Mournful cry
Pitiful
Waits at door
Strutting hesitance

Creeping over
Barnyard loft
Sniffing air
Scurrying rodents

Crouching low
Muscles tense
Twitching tip
Staring intense

Furious pounce
Sharpest claws
Dinnertime
Smacking success

Licking paws
Sandpaper tongue
Clean your ears
Slicking whiskers

Curling round
Toes to chin
Dormant pose
Sleeping princess
