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 That needed to go in the panty on the next floor, must be some panties... ( chuckling) now now..I should have thought better of picking at an obvious typo... just couldn't resist... so I apologize.. I like the poem and as usual you carry the images well throughout..
