For Sharon, the inside of the pueblo. Laissez-faire His cat on his back lay laissez-faire Hind legs stretched his front in the air His belly warming to the sun Oblivious of everyone He breathes the breathe of summer breeze His heart a slow and steady feeze His whiskers twitch in dreamers wile It seems to him he smiles a smile. There are times he’d die to be As tranquil as this cat he sees And would take lessons or a course To find this power and its source It is a path that he would stroll It is an art of mind control It dulls the sharp reality It is a pause of quality But now it stays a drat of riddle As much as the cat and the fiddle |

Wonderfully witty write, ST, says this persnikitty one while watching Meow slumber in her brown paper bag. Her name is Wickett...but Meow fits as a job description. As for the form, the piece was well done with only 2 instances of trochaic instead of iambic: 2nd line in first quatrain and 1st line in third quatrain. Four beats throughout created a soothing audible quality and demonstrated care and attention.  |
