Cat In The Tree Poem by Jacqui Broad

Cat In The Tree

Rating: 5.0


Yesterday, my cat was stuck
in the tree.
The poor thing clinging on for dear life
it seemed to me.
Eyes big and wild and staring
meouwing on the top of his voice...
But, thankfully he has an owner who's caring
and guided him down with a soothing noise.
Safely back on the ground
I gave him warm milk and his bowl of food.
With it a lesson came around.
If we take chances it might end good.
We scream and cry when the seas get rough,
but there's always someone ready to lend a hand.
Reaching out, guiding us when times get tough.
Ask the cat in the tree, he'll understand...

Holy moly, holy dooly! Wow, I just like spontaneous flow of thoughts just flow of brooks. With simple cat you have wrought a wonder with significant message to the world. Hello fellow poetess, You remind me ERNEST HEMMING-WAY and his old man and sea with simple fish and rather old fellow......... Brilliant performance oh dear broad! :) :) I can give you 2 smiles!
