Sweet, fluffy kitten,
Softly purring on my chest,
~ Kissing tears away.
Giving freely of your love,
Asking nothing in return.

(giggles in delight) OH MY GOSH, I LOVE KITTYS SOOOOOO MUCH!!! Just thinking of them always make me smile and giggle because they are soooooooo cute and adorable! Joanna has a kitty thats white and the kitty loves to always nibble her toe but it doesn't hurt, it just tickles she said, and is soooooo adorable! (rolls a ball of yarn for the kitty) Awwwwwww, this is such a cute love poem, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Oh Linda, this is so heartwarming. I'm not a cat person, but a dog lover. Animals are great, for the very reason you mention ... they ask nothing in return. And they don't give back talk!

Hugs, Marti

Linda, this is precious...though I too, am not a cat person, but adore dogs, this might change my mind.

Linda, this is a wonderful tanka. And, so true. Animals love you no matter what. With no conditions, either.

Linda, this is so sweet. I love cats and dogs, and have one of both.
They do love you, kiss tears away, and give freely of their love.
Thank you for this, Earthy Angel.

AAwww, isn'tthat just like a kitty! They never ask anything exept for food, love and a soft place to sleep. I loved your poem.

Never be normal!

Noah  ~  I knew you would love kittens!--because you, dear angel heart, love all living creatures!
*********************************************

Marti  ~  I had only been into dogs until my daughters, when they were little girls, wanted a kitten. Now I have been converted!
*********************************************

Pat  ~  Kittens are so soft and snuggly, cute and cuddly!
*********************************************

Sue  ~  Thank you for that!
*********************************************

Ethel  ~  You are quite welcome! The pleasure was all mine!
*********************************************

Sun  ~  I found the pic with your poem, I believe is entitled, "Forever Friends". It puts the "A" in "adorable"!!!
*********************************************

Wind  ~  That's for sure!
*********************************************

Thank you all for your warm and thoughtful replies!

~loving hugs and warm smiles

Linda

Asking nothing in return

If only we humans could do this a little more often maybe this world wouldn't be so cold afterall. I am foremost a dog-person but on occasion have pet a cat or two in a moment of weakness.

sweet words Linda
