Finding Inside-Out
My cat thinks I've gone crazy when I dance.
I dance the I'm-Not-Old-Yet.
I liberate a swan.
I reinvent the Shake-It-All-Out.
I close with The Lord's Prayer.
She hides under the bed.
I am clearly mad.
She doesn't understand
that I am finding it,
as one would find
the last noodle in a bowl of soup . . .
without disturbing the broth.

Glad you liked it! Thanks for sharing your cat moments Bridgette! I'm not alone!
And I will keep dancing Deonils, just maybe not in front of the cat!
And JL, I COULDN'T AGREE MORE.
There is something about acting crazy that helps us regain our sanity. Lets hope our pets never learn to talk too... God knows what they would tell the neighbors. lol
wonderful poem! love the last lines :)
Cats and dancing and poetry... what a combination! Love it!
Simply nice kid, nice.

LOLOL!!! I loved! My cat used to try to paw at my feet when I would dance...the other one loved to be held as I danced around. Of course, the third one looked at me like I had lost my mind...lolol.
