Hi everyone,
Today’s Purrsday Poetry post comes from Erica Herd.
I twist on the sofa like a pretzel knot,
it’s a cat’s life for me.
I don’t know why you’re so busy, but I am not,
it’s a cat’s life for me.
I supervise as you iron the clothes, mop the floor,
but I never soil my paws.
When you clean the toilet, I sometimes jump in.
You towel me off.
I like to be swaddled,
but then I want to be free.
I slap at the blinds till you open the window,
to observe the happenings in my backyard–
It’s a good life for me.
Why do you go into the world?
It’s better in here.
We have everything we need:
food, toys, a cup of joe,
cozy napping places.
I like to go in the yard,
but then
it’s back in in my bag.
It’s a cat’s life for me.
