Angry animal at only ten with carrot mane in string it hangs beside a deceptive smile. Wild cat distracted by any sound Ready to strike, ready to pound especially at the silence of pendulums swing. Angry One, from where did you come? [This message has been edited by Sadelite (05-20-2004 12:39 PM).] |

"At only ten ..." ? So it can't be a hissing puma! You mysterious lady, you keep us thinking ... A captivating read. Love, Margherita |

Okay, who is the angry one. It sounds like a puma to me, too, but like above, "only 10" throws me. .....jo |

Deer eyes at eight Can patiently wait Watching the cat try to swing Curly lock top All motions stop Listen to the bell now ring Tom cat she doesn’t know But play’s done and must go Glancing over shoulder sees Quickly the angry flees Gloom perhaps not the answer but at least a response of sorts |

I got the picture of when I used to tease my cat. With the ball on a string. Or anything... Very descriptive though. |

Sunshine, TD, and Margherita, Thank you for responding. It's funny how a poet can write something that he thinks is clear as clean water, and when he hears of other's interpretation, he has to go back and say, "Hm... I didn't think of it that way, but that's an interesting take on the theme!" I find myself smiling at all the ways this poem has been visualized. Thank you for your feedback! Sadie passing shadows, Ohhhhh. That ouches. Be well, my friend. Sadie iliana, You'll kick yourself when you figure it out! You're trying too hard. Gotta get back to business very soon. Thanks, Sadie Professor, I think the Angry One has dwelled in the setting of many of your gloomier poems. Thanks. Sadie endlessecho, You must have one playful and aggressive little kitty! Enjoyed your response. Sadie Thanks, Eric. I appreciate your response. Sadie [This message has been edited by Sadelite (05-20-2004 03:08 PM).] |

Okay -- I give up? Please email me to let me know? The only other thing I could figure was a decorative grandfather clock or a kitty watching it! lol [This message has been edited by iliana (05-21-2004 11:05 AM).] |

I've read my e-mail. You are doing all you can, and that sort of carrying DOES have weight and merit. You may not see it yourself, but it will continue to be felt by those who receive your gifts. I am very proud of you - and someday, you will see just how much of a change you made. Thank you for sharing the details. |

LOL, I pictured a young two-legged even more than a four-legged creature. Having had three brothers and sisters with red hair, and having worked with children in a psychiatric setting...I guess understood this write differently than most the other readers. |

Sunshine, You are a real pal! Thanks for the pat on the shoulder. I needed that. Your words are very much appreciated. Sadie Midnitesun, Although in different settings, there is unrest... Thanks so much for responding. I've missed your writing. Sadie |
