Hello, Lady Jag:

Your photo has been whispering to me since you posted it

Katski, come out and play!!

I had spent the day on the Diamond Run
Watching bundled up Humans trying to ski is fun
And riding down hill on their shoulders, more fun than that
Because everyone wants to ride the Ski Lift with the Lodge's cat

It was a wonderful day of Ups and Downs
When dark thick clouds rolled across the mountains and towards the town
When the Humans wisely decided they'd had enough fun for a day
Then moved down the ridge in an orderly array

We all rushed from the Ski Lifts and made our way
Around the Lodge's fire place without delay
Shaking off snow and ice, when I heard a feline voice
Implore teasingly, "Katski, come out and play!!"

My ears turned to the voice and I was off in a bound
Through the front door. Snow swirled in the icy mist with a whispering sound
When I found Fiona, her fur and whiskers shimmering with frost and ice
As she leaped and plunged into a snow drift, her secret vice

Leaping and jumping from holes in loose snow
Soon kept me warm as I decided to go
After Fiona all around the Lodge and Chateaus
Our breath making fleecy steam in the silvery glow

When Fiona's Fun Meter had finally been pegged
We drifted into the Lodge, it was far beneath her to beg
For the Towel rubs and attention by the roaring fire place
Accepting it all with sublime Feline grace
