Furry and fluffy
Funny and cute
Eats all the biscuits
Steals all the loot
Cunning and sneaky
I call him beaky
Gets his nose quickly
Into deep sleep.
New paintings and regular art updates.

Go to bed
Lie down
Stay awake
Close your eyes
Calm your thoughts
Calm them again
Think of something else
Reinvent the wheel
Remember another problem
Count sheep….
Count goats
Daylight
Dawn…
Sleep….
Wake up after three hours
Repeat…..

You can’t see much-
But he’s in there!
Hidden and snug
Illusory emptiness
From his black hair
Turned up exposure
Won’t give him away
Snug and hidden
He’ll sleep all day!

Esther Chilton sets a limerick challenge every week, this was my offering for the prompt Glum.

Tulips bloomed
Scent filled the air
Warm breezes
Touched my hair.
purple flowers
Proud and bright
Give enjoyment
To my sight.
May was gentle
Soft and true
Forget-me-nots
Bloomed in blue.
Fine flowers
Grown up tall.
Magic bower
Soft waters fall.
Memory of
a lovely day.
Gives my heart
Delight today.

A bit like knitting,
Twisting and turning.
Beige and brown
Knit one
Pearl one
Draw one….
Slip one over
Onto a digital screen…
Tessellations
Tiled again

More snow due.
My nose? Blue!
If heating on
Money will be gone.
Winds a beast
From the north east
Cats have coats
So they’re warm as toast!
So wearing layers
To be lower payers.
One way to reduce
Carbon footprint use.

Now I’ve fallen
you don’t care
I let go and you
didn’t stop me..
Lost my way
Flew away
Into darkness
Falling down
Somehow renewed
Fluttering when you
Lost your grip
Now I’m free
To dance and play
You have no say
Today.

Wish I was a warm fussy cat
Snoozing on the chair
Tucked up nice and snug
Feeling really very smug
Basking in warm air!
Wish I was a happy little cat
Eating till I’m full
As I’m feeling very fat,
I’d rest my paws and head
Sleeping on the bed.
Wish I were a contented cat
Dreaming of chasing mice
Never having to hunt for food
Playing with my catnip toys
When I’m in the mood.

Warning arrives
Snow flies
Blizzards may be
As Arwen, a storm
Comes in from the sea.
Strengthening winds
Blustery showers
Branches may fall
Throughout the day.
Ice and snow flutters
Into the gutters
When will it go?
who knows!
