Cat Owner's Adventures Form of the Week Treochair
Cat Owner's Adventures
​​​​​​​
A thriller,
let me bring you up to date.
Molly Cat is a killer.

And she brings
her precious prizes inside
all while she meows and sings

Many types
of birds, rodents, and lizards
have become a part of the hype

Just today
she snatched a bird from the sky
still alive plucked to play

Well of course
I tried to rescue her prey
without making matters worse

Oh, it flew
to the ceiling and rounded
the room, seeking open blue

Then it hid
behind the washing machine
the poor thing shivers, timid.

So I wait,
cat evicted, door open
hoping it is not too late.
                   ~~Judi Van Gorder
