the cat
I sat in the park, watching the trees,
Feeling the chill of the winter breeze,
The squirrels’ finding food,
A dead piece of wood,
A cat on the prowl, stalking the birds,
She looks at me as I look back,
I wonder if she is going to attack,
She comes on over, to the bench,
Leaps up and settles by my side,
A new friend I have, it would appear,
Until she decides to disappear,
The hair from my friend now makes me sneeze,
I shiver, I think, from the winter breeze?
