Anticipation

Can’t wait ‘til we “spring”

ahead, to six o’clock for

the cats to be fed.

It’s early;

we kick the cats out

of our room,

then wait for

the barrage from four strong paws

until we relent.

From behind the drape,

Morning ornithology—

A feline “pursuit”.

to having
a smart speaker is
when your cat
turns it on
with the volume at full blast,
and it’s rap music!

Mesmerized,
by blowing leaves, my
cat sits at
the window.
His head traces rise and fall,
every muscle tensed.
