My Snow Loving Cat

Eileen Clark 1993 (Htfd. Ct.)



Can't you see the big snow flakes coming down
The wind is blowing the snow on frozen ground
Sitting at the door are you wanting to go out
How loud the word no do you want me to shout

It's piling up real fast making big snow banks                                                                          Staying in this warm house you should give thanks                                                               One paw out that door and you would quickly disappear
Wait until the Mr. plows a path to make the way clear

Please stop fussing while I wrap you in this warm sweater
And you may not like it but this hat makes it even better
Your the one snow cat that wants to go out in this blizzard
It sure would make me happy if you would just reconsider

About this poem

I have two cats and would not let them out for three days because of the below zero weather, hence the poem.

Eileen Clark

When I was little I was always rhyming things in my head as a child but never wrote things down. I have a slight learning disability, did poorly in school, and quit the day I turned sixteen. That should explain my poor spelling folks! For many years I kept busy as most do with taking care of home and family and friends and pets and working, and so on. I did keep up with my painting and they made nice gifts to give out to friends for every occasion. Now I'm old and crippled with rheumatoid arthritis and somewhat housebound, hence the Blogs and websites to keep myself busy and I began to write poems. My poems are not sophisticated or brilliant, just simple writings filled with memories of my childhood, my imagination, my experiences in life, and my plight with arthritis. I love my poems and don't mind saying so. I hope to post some of my short stories when I get brave enough. Eileen Clark more…
