FELINE FRIENDS

Curled up on the couch
with a curled up kitten

cradled in your lap.

Both of you
(totally)
out of this world.

I smile at such
a lovely double take.

Tiptoe 'round
the flat
(afraid that you should wake) .

I kiss both
your noses

& you both
sniff & shift

adopt new
synchronised poses.

I can only
love 'n' sit 'n' watch

as one of you makes a move

that

the other will match.

I take a Polaroid
as I am leaving

place it between
your toes

where
(on awakening)

it will be seen

to show you

how

very beautiful

you've been.
