The Kitten and the Falling Leaves

See the Kitten on the wall,
Sporting with the leaves that fall,
Withered leaves - one-two-and three -
From the lofty elder-tree!
Though the calm and frosty air
Of this morning bright and fair,
Eddying round and round they sink
Softly, slowly: one might think,
From the motions that are made,
Every little leaf conveyed
Sylph or Faery hither tending,
To this lower world descending,
Each invisible and mute
In his wavering parachute.

But the Kitten, how she starts,
Crouches, stretches, paws, and darts!
First at one, and then its fellow
Just as light and just as yellow.
There are many now - now one -
Now they stop and there are none:
What intenseness of desire
In her upward eye of fire!
With a tiger-leap half-way
Now she meets the coming prey,
Lets it go as fast, and then
Has it in her power again:
Now she works with three or four,
Like an Indian conjurer;
Quick as he in feats of art,
Far beyond in joy of heart.
Where her antics played in the eye
Of a thousand standers-by,
Clapping hands with shout and stare,
What would little Tabby care
For the plaudits of the crowd?

Great 'Caturday' graphic and poem, and some great 'Caturday' posts!
I haven't been on much, as I have out of town guests.
I can see I have a lot of catching up on pings!
It may be several weeks, as my company will be here for some time.
I'll try to check in and let you all know I'm still with ya, sporatically!
Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Good Morning !!! Good Morning!!!
Waving from Los Angeles! Caturday is here and I am enjoying the weekend of peace and quiet!

Thanksgiving was awesome... a total of 49! Three turkeys, much food and a noisy fun family!

Tired? LOL... I’m exhausted but happy. We were able to have our granddaughter Shelby with us, and stay over night. She was glad to be here and is adjusting to her group home....Praise God!
