Clowder Trio
















Super Cat

ink
pawed
tail-dipped
Siamese
donning shrouding mask
dashing through the night fighting crime


Calico Cat

sweet tri-colored cat
still purring
content to claim your lawful right
gourmet feasts, friendly pats
and keeping
all joys that fall within your sight

 
Book Cat

tiny kitten in the bookcase
cavorting between the manuals
keeping gleaming tomes in their place
for she’s the librarian here

she knows each volume purrfectly
from the ones that make her castle
to the ones where she naps with glee
for she’s the librarian here

peeking out from behind the shelf
batting hands to fruitful titles
she is as helpful as an elf
for she’s the librarian here

curled up soundly in the archive
bewhiskered Queen of the novels
presiding as books come alive
for she’s the librarian here


A clowder is a group of cats.

Sabbath















bright
morn
that day
when our Lord
left the tomb behind
broke death and set us free from sin
Hosanna! We reverence Him now and forever
as we gather here together
in praise and worship
remember
always
His
day

 This poem is based off of the Fibonacci sequence which is 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13 (and so on). Each line has a syllable for the number of the sequence and then after 13 syllables I turned around and went backwards. Who says math and English can't mix?
