Poem to my cats

[Kazz]

My two cats are getting on now they are both in their 20's Oscar and Cleo and today I sat and wrote this for them as I can't think where the years have gone.

I remember the first day you came you could fit in my hand

I remember the first time you hunted for mice in preference to canned

I remember the days you tried to remain aloof

I remember the days when you got stuck on the roof

I remember the nights you purred me to sleep

I remember the days you played with my feet

I remember our “talks” as we sat in the sun

I remember our days as you stalked me for fun

I remember the times you pretended to hide

I remember the times you sat by my side

I remember the times your "food" tried run

I remember the days with a mouse on the run

I remember your call

I’ll remember it all

Dedicated to cats and their people everywhere

Hi Kazz, that's brilliant! My eldest is eighteen and it rings so true! Where have all the years gone..........

[Mags]

That is beautiful Kazz and easy to relate to!
Let's have more poems!!

Nice to see you back here again - don't leave it too long next time

[Fran]

Yes, more poems please Kazz!

[Kazz]

Thanks all.

And I must say I rarely write poems the last was for my dog Gyp - who we lost younger than we should have due to illness.

[Mags]

We'd still like to hear a doggie poem Kazz, if you can remember it.

[Fran]

You ought to write them more often kazz, you are very good

[Mags]

I wish I had a talent like that

[Kazz]

I have no talent.

I will try to recall the doggie one.

[Mags]

Don't kid yourself Kazz - not many could come up with something like that.
