My woman Purrs
Karen Lee Koechel 1954 (New York State)
My woman she purrs
as she lies on my chest
I contently holding
her perfect round breast
Our love is so brisk
like the wind flowing free
Yet I cry out in sweat
in complete ecstasy
She kisses my body
and touches my face
caressing the pain
she wants to erase
I lie here so still
trembling inside
I love her so much
why do I hide.
About this poem
I wrote this as my cat Dooley layed on my bed and purred so deep the bed moved.
