Warm Fuzzy Wednesday Poetry





Mother said I'm a Big Girl today!
And let me go by myself to the Barn to play
Explore and sniff and scratch
From one dark and shadowy patch
To another, probing the darkness velvety deep
Where snakes silently slither and mice noisily creep

Breathing in the lush and heady liquor
Of horses, dust, molding sweet hay where sunlight dims and flickers
I pad courageously amongst dust motes that dip and swirl
Bravely exploring my new found world
To find pretty flowers rising between the dirt floor and wall
To stand attractively straight and tall

I wonder what kind of flower it is and how it got here?
As I pad slowly, cautiously near
Tasting its sweet scent with my tongue and nose
As pretty wings under its petals suddenly unfold and grow
To flutter as they catch the cool, still air to dance and rise
A wondrous treat for my young and curious eyes!

Oh, Cat Man! That is just perfect. I always loved to find kittens in my grandmother's barn. :D
