Our Neighbour's Cat
Luna is a female cat from the neighbourhood
who drops in at our house
when she is doing her morning walk
Where she lives is not nearby,
but that is our neighbourhood
big houses, big backyards great distances
Luna does not like
that other cats are in our backyard
so she possesses the whole backyard
and chases the cats away
when she was younger,
she just dropped in and wait,
with my help, to chase the cats away
now she has got more muscles,
she dares to chase away the cats on her own
and since a few days,
no more cats are coming into our backyard,
basking in the morning sun rays
Luna gets the backyard for her own,
making herself comfortably clean all the time
and most of the time she is sleeping
in one of the nooks of our backyard
she is most adorable!
Poet's Notes:
Recent picture of Luna added here, most adorable
Sylvia I don't like cats but I feel for this one because of yr wonderful poem
I don't like cats either, but starting with Luna, I have started to like this Luna. Thank you so much for your kindest comment, LeeAnn
She visits you only because of your love and compassion. Cats are cute, naughty and adorable, I am sure she enjoys your company and backyard to rest for a while. Who know she must be getting mousy dreams as well.....Great write Madam Sylvia.5*****
So Luna is independent and capable with your initial assistance.Beautifully crafted Madam sylvia.Regards to share such a poem.
A fascinating and entertaining poem tinged with humor. So lovely to read...it made me laugh.
Cats are always adorable. Thank you my friend Sylvia, for sharing such a lovely poem,
Oh Sylvia, cats come in my back garden and leave their calling card as mine is the only one with grass.
Not with Luna, she is truly adorable. The other cats leaves their sh-t indeed, David, but with Luna coming into my backyard, no dirts of other cats anymore. Luna helped me to oversee my own backyard, lol
I THOUGHT they love brown sand, my backyard garden has grass and sand.But Luna is clean, she let all her calling cards at home (her home) . Thank you David for your lovely response.
