I Have A Treat For A Black Cat .....[humor; Cats]

Rating: 5.0


Black cat why do you run?
I want to have some fun.
Let me pet you.
Let me get you
some fish on toasted bun.

Fish you don't like you say?
What else would make your day?
Some beef perhaps?
Some chicken scraps?
I'll help you have your way.

When you finish your meal
I'll make with you a deal.
Come visit me
and I will see
next time you'll have some veal.

Then together we'll play;
for some toys I will pay.
Then you may nap
upon my lap.
I'll care for you O.K.?

We'll be not all alone.
Each other we shall 'own'.
At night I'll sleep
while watch you keep,
in our bed by the phone.

Such a cute write! Cats are such lovable buddies! I too like to cuddle them and keep them on my bed while napping! I am sure with such tempting feed, many cats will swarm your kitchen Bri!

The 'closest' I ever came to having a pet cat was in college, when somebody else's cat sat in my lap while I drew its likeness, perhaps for a free-hand drawing class. bri : )

Great time pass with black cat. Writing poetry is another way to kill the time. Nice humour Bri.

The SECOND Part: I had a cat, I called her Panter, a black female cat and when she turned old (15 years) , she died on World Animal Day in 2013. This is no humor, but the truth, Bri. She, an animal, hihi, died on World Animal Day. Panter was reality. May she R.I.P. Thank you for this entertaining poem, Bri, absolutely humorous. The phrase is World Animal Day and not World´s Animal Day, Bri. In case you will ask- correct. G.B.U. Amen.10

The FIRST Part: A most lovely poem, Bri, one of the best fictions you have ever created in a poem format. You had seen A Black Cat, then as one who likes to rhyme, came this poem flowing in your mind and then on PH. I like the way you have worded your full fantasy in this poem .....................................Please read The SECOND Part
