Savvy Cat

Oliver After Dark

Savvy cat strolls outdoors
meeting and greeting the dogless walker
black fur polishes boots
purrs contentment
Be savvy, cat!
Coyote four-pack
loped this way last night

my first cat poem

    Thank you all for your lovely comments. Cats seem to strike a responsive chord! I had never seen Oliver before, even though I have passed that way many times. I keep looking for him now. He lives near where I saw him – I checked his tag!

    Oliver would make a great protagonist — so self-sufficient and soft, at the same time.

    This is like a suspenseful prologue to a great tale of mystery woven against a backdrop of the domestic Oliver and the wild coyote – who is the dogless walker… 😀

  7. I like the way you have written this Monica , it gives a brief imaginative image and leaves the mind open to ponder.

    It is a good one, too.
    We have them in the woods behind our house, and I occasionally see them in the yard at night, but we are catless.
