Every cat needs attention
Even though they act
Standoffish. They will
Sit and stare at you for
Minutes at a time and
When you reach down
To pet them they swat
At you. But when they
Want something they’ll
Rub against your leg
And purr.

Declaration
If I could make someone
Else feel seen, feel safe
For a brief moment, feel
A little less alone, I would
Have accomplished my
Goal as a poet.
Flash in the Sky
It’s not often that a bright
Enough light in the sky in
The daytime catches your
Attention. But this one did.
It was like someone took a
Picture of the earth using
A flash camera that lit up
The world. Nobody knows
Where it came from or who
Did it. We can only hope
They like us.
