The Sunday Muse....gosh what a wonderful prompt! Love that kitty! :D And god knows what I penned looking at the pic...Poor meow ...So lost!
Hic! Hic! Hic!
I just want a sip
Last night was very wild
My tummy is aching
Maybe the rat I ate
Still crawling!
Hic! Hic! Hic!
I miss my buddy
Who was wandering in the alley
He chased and chased and was chased
By a car on the other side of the street.
Can I have a sip
In his memory?
Hic! Hic! Hic!
She was unfaithful
And left me for a fool
He was too furry
Looks can be deceptive
I am heartbroken
Just a sip
To ease the pain!
Hic! Hic! Hic!
A heavy heart
And an aching tummy
Makes me very unsteady
Shouldn't I drown myself
In a glass of sherry?

ReplyDeleteYou hit the nail, Bev :)
DeletePoor kitty, life is hard and he needs a little grape drink to take the edge off! So cute, it really made me smile, and your comment on mine made my day.
ReplyDeleteAww....thank you, Shay :)
DeleteI've been tempted to drink away my sorrows a few times but I never did. That sounds good but I think in the end it is bad.
ReplyDelete..
To be honest, I didn't know what to write Jim. I just went with the flow :D
