I love the way my cat will leap, from an apparent place of deep rest, and run out in front of me so they can be the first to go where I am going. Ears perked, head on a swivel, My tiny panther protector sweeps the room, and the next, and stops wherever I do, to lay down and hold down the fort. This will always make me smile, …and I’ll hold on to that for as long as I can… 08/30/2021 M. L. Michael
Out of Necessity
I love the way my cat will leap,
from an apparent place of deep rest,
and run out in front of me
so they can be the first to go where I am going.
Ears perked, head on a swivel,
My tiny panther protector sweeps the room,
and the next, and stops wherever I do,
to lay down and hold down the fort.
