April 6th, or, You are Katie

Little beating heart no bigger than a summer cherry

Universe of purrs

Green eyes blink the world

Breaths of small ribbed wind

Whiskers extend your mystique

Little licks on my arm in the night when I stir

Curl around me in a fever

Sleep close like a sister

Sweet ears protect from spirits

Little orange cat, you are ours

You should enter this for Purrsday poetry 🙂

Hi Mar-Andre! Thanks for the comment! I’ve never heard of Purrsday poetry.. Can you tell me more?

Hi there! I don’t seem to have ever replied to this but it’s a weekly poetry section on my Blog. 😮

And… because it runs on Thursday’s next year will be the 6th of april for the poetry section so I’d be delighted to include a reblog. 😀

Hi Marc-Andre! Yes, just let me know when you’d like to re-blog 🙂

What a lovely poem and adorable pictures!

I used to be fixated on orange cats, but I branched out! Happy brushing! You got longish hair! Arrived via Katzenworld . . .
