Purrfect Poem by Sandra Martyres
Purrfect
Purrfecting the art of purring
She does exactly that
our dear imaginative
and near perfect pet cat
We notice that each time
she wants something
the volume and tone of her purr
changes to reflect
her sense of urgency
The higher the pitch
the greater is her need
to spur us into action
to provide her with
the object of her desire
A piece of fish
generally exacts the
highest decibel purr
Its flavour drives
her almost crazy
The purr frequency is lower
for a saucer of milk or water
So the greater the urgency
the less pleasing the purr.
beautiful...purrrrfect... you made cats more adorable to have as pets.. thanks for sharing.... 10+++ lovelots, Maia

Perfect understanding of communicative purr, the feline body language. It shows your great love for your pet and your perfect dedication to poetry with all care to rhyme, rhythm and flow. CP
Hahaha! Beautiful poem. This is what poetry means........a poet must be able to write on any subject with clarity. And ofcours that is the case with pets.......when we develop a kind of affectionate relation with pets, be it a cat or a dog, we see them in different angles, in different histrionics and sometimes in tantrums(out of love) . Very beautiful.
very intriguing your study of the feline..... i love animals
very intriguing your study of the feline..... i love animals
