Little Gray Kitty


The gray kitty scurried under my bed
After my nightly prayer was said
Early next morn in the hall
Another stirred, not quite as small

Then opening the closet door
Yet another pranced on the floor
Oh my, they've multiplied
In corners they're trying to hide


Soft and fuzzy, they scattered
As if only playfulness mattered
But this craziness had to stop
So I gathered and shook them from my mop

I love this. I am a cat lover.
Hope you don't mind if I print this up.

Thanks for reading my dust kitty poem.

I, too, am a lover of cats, but not these dust kitties, I wrote about.  Feel free to use it.

Rae, these are the exact images my Mother described to be about six weeks ago.  I am going to send her a copy of your poem if that is okay with you.  Her little kittens have been a great bit of pleasure for her but I do not think she is going to keep them.  Enjoyed this very much.  *hugs*...jo

We call 'em dustbunnies... and they do seem to propogate themselves! *S* Enjoyed this!!

(giggles in delight) Awwwwwwww, that's soooooooo adorable, dearest friend, it reminds me ever so much of my kitty Suky I had as a boy and how she always made her little nest in the closet or the sandbox! (smiles) This is too cute, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Rae, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
