(Love poem to a

Lady Cat)

PYEWACKET

'Cherchez la femme.'

Oh, tiny Siamese lady cat -beautiful kitten-

The wisdom of a thousand Years shines from your Bright, mischievous eyes.

Oh, loving little soul-

Such feminine grace

-and only eight weeks old!

How I love you!

We are betrothed.

You have snored on my sleeve, Arched your back

And crossed your paws (all four).

My heart is gone

As I contemplate the Mysterious infinitude of

Womanhood!
