Prowling the Desk
Prowling the Desk
What do you do
when you sit down to work
and a creature
leaps up on your lap?
What do you do
when you open your book
and the creature
lies down for a nap?
What do you do
when all you can see
is a snowstorm
of soft silver fur?
What can you do?
What choice do you have
but to cuddle
and hope for a purr?
This is Scout. She “helps” me write.

These have been so much fun, Liz!
Thank you! They have (mostly) been fun to write. 🙂
Awwwwwwwwww! Hello Scout! Glad to see you’re keeping your mom on track.
Right now, she’s snoozing on the couch and making me jealous.
Scout is pure (purrrrr) sweetness! I love that she has a desk poem dedicated to her. =)
Of course, she was not impressed in the slightest. 🙂
I have a helper like that. 🙂
Love, love, love this!
Scout is a beautiful cat, Liz, happy to see you have a helper! And her poem is delightful!
Such a sweet poem and what a pretty cat!
