Tulip, my kitten, is teaching me well;🌷
I've accepted her foibles (which can be hell).
My floor lamp's was moved once she started to climb it.
Unused, in a bedroom, is where it now sits.
A car window shade keeps her from noshing on plants;
clean- or not-dishes, and pizzas while thawing;
each case invites ants 🐜🐜🐜🐜
to survey the counters in my kitchen.
She re-arranges loose papers; Tulip deems them as tasty.
Snippets of paper continue to "snow" the indoors
unless I can stop her habit of redecorating
my living room, bathroom and kitchen floors.
Then there's my stash of morning and night pills.
She walks on top of two rows of my meds,
upsetting the vials each day. Now she just
walks on the bottle-covering bin instead.
Instead of clay litter, she uses a Breeze box,
but Tulip ends up playing
with loose pellets, batting stray pieces
all about the hall floor.
Tulip plays with endless fascination
and the occasional toy mouse.
Seriously, her energy has no limitation
as she ZIPS through our house.
My lack of experience - or talent -
for taking pics with my phone -
means you will just have to imagine
Tulip's star quality. ★★★★
I'll keep trying to capture my cat's humorous side
which disprove my typed comments, so snide.
Unlike past felines, this girl does not hide.
She likes meeting people, skinny or wide.
Sometimes I rhyme; often I don't.
Tulip talks to me both ways.
To ensure her next mealtime, she'll repeatedly say
"It's time to eat NEE-OW."
