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 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
