Now listen closely you'll understand my roaring rant before you stand I hate cats When they take their time as I rush to pee getting in their way jumping in front of me Sometimes a swipe when I walk by sometimes scratches sometimes none just sadistic feline fun I hate cats Fourteen years Sasha's reigned supreme my wife found this gray thing soon after we wed fourteen years to my sapient Queen I hate cats Sasha sometimes plops in my lap or by my side takes her nap often demands a stroke and a scratch atop her head or on the chin I hate cats Sometimes staring from across the room I wonder what evil in her looms wishing she would look away soon I hate cats When Sasha dies I will cry no more cats for me inside Do your hear me Maggie my loving bride? Shell just smile...wide. I love cats

Cats are definitley like that. And yet, beneath the "hate", there is definite endearment. You can't deny it, so don't even try. Hehe. I hate cats too.
Great poem! I could just see her cheshire cat smile in that last stanza... heheeeee
Well, you have a cat lover here and I think you protest too much. I adore them and I think in your heart of hearts Sasha has got you right around her paw. An adorable poem. Nice rhythm. Jane
