The dark shadows filled my room
Only candlelight held back the gloom
From taking over the silent tomb
As I ponder today’s events once more
And worried of the morrow coming soon.

I had just returned from the nearby store
Leaving some groceries by the kitchen door
That needed to go in the pantry on the next floor,
Tired and musing for a few moments I sat
Till thoughts and energy returned once more.

I went to gather the bag I had tiredly sat
Off hurried my furry ring-tail cat
And I wonder what mischief he was at
And lifted the bags to leave the room
And the contents fell to the ground with a splat.

I came to realized very soon, why the cat was in the room
As I gathered thing off the floor, I saw him sitting by the door
Now knowing the mischief he was at, that curious ring-tail cat.

I guess I am lucky, mine, Sugar, is beyond the playfulness stage. She is just a snuggling cat now..always in my bed wanting my pillow...

Leaving some groceries by the kitchen door

I like the poem and as usual you carry the images well throughout..

Maybe yes, maybe no.

Thank you, Nakdthoughts,
Twicely for the reply

And a special Thanks to Cpat Hair,
For showing that everyone should reread their work
Out loud, to catch mistakes.
I you might guess I wrote this in a hurry and no must correct.

Thank You, Midnitesun,
I correct it, but I’m sure the image will stay
With those that read it before correction,
Pleased to add to your enjoyment.
