A tiny flower

Promises so much.

Spring will bring

A cloud of purple

Buds and blooms

Life springs out

From cracks and crevices,

Waiting warm dew drops

To water them.

Ahh sweet smell

Of flora…

Tail twitch

Sit and watch

My tail twitch

My whiskers sweep

Around the sink.

Where’s the spiders

Gone tonight?

In the sink…

Underneath…

By the bath?

Looking for them…

I’ll find em!

My phone is full!

My phone is full

The woman said

It’s full of dreams

And other stuff..

Of melodies

And games

And names

Conversations

I can’t leave.

My pictures are

My memories!

My phone is full

I can’t discard

My life!

Red sky in the morning,

Shepherds warning?

See the sky

Roses in your eye.

Now its dawn

New day is born..

Pink to blue

Purple hues too

Twigs and branches

Spring approaches.

Sun or rain

Brings green again….

Back to sleep

In bed I’ll keep

Until full sun

And sunrise is done…

Put your paw out, say hello….

Come and get warm

Please don’t go

Cats are friendly

When you know

How to love them

Snuggling so.

Outdoor cat update

He sleeps on the bed

I get up to let him out

I get up to let him in

I have to move my legs

To give him room

I get up to feed him

I love him

How did that happen?!

Cat on a sink

She balances on the sink

Waiting for a love

Looking beautiful

What a face

How can I resist?

But she’s ready to pounce

Her brother is on the floor

Clash of the cats

Tripping me up!

Moons

So many moons

In the solar system.

Io, Callisto

Titan, Deimos.

Flying round planets

And orbiting them.

Saturn has many

Does Jupiter have more?

So many it could raise

An army of them to war?

Holsts the planet suite

Musical encore

Perhaps there should be

A moon musical score?

Mow Cop limerick

There is a prompt set by Esther Chilton to write a limerick using a particular word. This week it was Mop, which was good because I’d just drawn Mow Cop at Five am this morning.

Mow Cop is a folly of a castle near Kidsgrove, Staffordshire, and stands above the Cheshire plain with views of Jodrell Bank Observatory and beyond.
