sheets of rain
pound the roof
the cat yawns
cat
Paws
the cat paws
at the window
the birds don’t care
Weekend
late morning light
the cat purrs
my weekend alarm
Rain
3 a.m. just me
and the cat
watching it rain
Watching
birds pick the ground
barely aware
the cat is watching
Innocent?
ornaments wobble
the cat tries
to look innocent
Watch
late afternoon
the cat wakes
to watch the birds
Catisms
the cat licks
his feet and my empty
cereal bowl
Watching
pecking birds
have no clue
the cat is watching
Tickle
a dream
tickles my cheeks
waking to the cat
