Hi everyone, Please find below the latest entry in Purrsday Poetry by Luanne Castle. Cat on the Window Seat The old cat cases through the glass a long-tailed lizard scuttling across stones, twisting side- to-side, sending stones down the gravel hill to the quail cocking its headgear, which flushes the rabbit that springs off […]

Love it, Luanne!!
Thanks for reading, Ellie. I miss my old Mac man.
Beautifully done, Luanne!
Thanks so much, Anneli!
Love it, Luanne. It made me smile. It reminded me of something like The Old Woman who Swallowed a Fly–the chain reaction of events.
Thanks, Merril! I was inspired by that accumulative style of nursery rhyme, though I left out the repetition for a more quick flicking type movement like a cat watching someone that moves.
Nicely done!
Lovely, Luanne…and great photos too.
Thanks, Jill. I miss my old Mackie. And the other kitty (the darker tabby) is my daughter’s cat Isabella Rose.
Love the zig-zaggy layout that scuttles across the screen lizard-like. I can imagine your kitty’s head moving with the lizard tracking his moves. Lovely poem.
Oh, thank you! That is what I was going for :).
Lovely Luanne and thanks very much for following Smorgasbord. Sally
Thank you so much! Your blog is very interesting!
Thank you.
Aw, Mac….thanks for sharing him with us.
My Mac man. Sniff.
Lovely sequence of cat – window – lizard – etc.!
Thank you, Theresa!
I really liked the way it was a magical tale of a detective cat, “on the case.” The photograph of a clear cat profile, its cute paws resting on the space between rod iron railing rungs was amazing! Luanne, the cat’s fur patterns are so pretty! hugs xoxo
Hahaha, I love that! Yes, cats are JUST like that! The cat is Isabella Rose, my daughter’s cat, and she took the pic! Izzie is adorable! xoxo
