Poetry From the Heart of Mew-Mew Milieu This is the award Autumn won for her poem! Feline Summer Hunt By Autumn My summer duty, to protect my yard, Daddy get the rope, hurry up you dope, Satisfaction, and a bug, my reward. Slink down low, a circumspect peek, Around the shed, now keep your head, First we'll do a yard critique. The place where mommy feeds the birds, Daddy not so close! The birds will adios! Wings swirl away, those cowards. I turn my head, the big tree, on the trunk! Two whirley squirrels, doing squirrely whirls! They go around till I get drunk, Now out to where the grass is high, I'll leopard it there, bugs beware! I think I'll eat a Butterfly. Here comes one now, wiggle to set, I leapt so high, I touched the sky! Daddy says I'm Roger Ramjet. My pledge is kept, my face is clean, And now a scratch, and then a nap, In the shadow of the evergreen. I'll Wait Till Then. For my Butch I'll never see your furry face, Those green eyes shinning up at me. I have new friends now, they can't replace, I live my life now brokenly. "Oh, Mama, please don't be so sad, You know I tried to live forever. My love for you is still ironclad, Had it been my choice, I'd have left you, never." I want to hear you yell "Mee-oouutt", And then stand at the door and wait. I want you to wake me with a pat and a shout, and sleep with me, my furry bed-mate. "I'm there, still, in your bed Mama, I guard you each and every night. It was never goodby, it was just aloha, You'll be with me, here, the time is not quite". I want to say, "give Mama a kiss", And then feel your little rough tongue. I miss everything about you, and then there's this, The strings of my heart are completely unstrung. "I never really went away, You'll see me Mama, I'm waiting for you. A love like ours could never decay, I just had to bid you and life adieu". I know you did, my sweet little friend, And everything that lives must die. It's a long road now that you must wend, So I'll try to be brave as I say goodby "It is a long road, Mama, but I can't go yet, I've lots of friends and I'm young again. I'll wait for you, I'll never forget, If it takes forever, I'll wait till then". Lori M. Denison/Temple 1998 Home Cats Awards Links Autumn Moustache Kittens Butch Alex Together Rules Egyptian
