Our Neighbour's Cat

Our Neighbour's Cat

Luna is a female cat from the neighbourhood
who drops in at our house
when she is doing her morning walk

Where she lives is not nearby,
but that is our neighbourhood
big houses, big backyards great distances

Luna does not like
that other cats are in our backyard
so she possesses the whole backyard
and chases the cats away

when she was younger,
she just dropped in and wait,
with my help, to chase the cats away

now she has got more muscles,
she dares to chase away the cats on her own
and since a few days,
no more cats are coming into our backyard,
basking in the morning sun rays

Luna gets the backyard for her own,
making herself comfortably clean all the time
and most of the time she is sleeping
in one of the nooks of our backyard
she is most adorable!

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
A tiny hole in our backyard's fench made possible for the female cat from our nighbourhood to come in our garden, such coziness in the backgarden and all other cats dare no more to enter our backyard. Enjoy reading and please your feedback, thank you. Best regrads from Sylvia Frances Chan

Oh Sylvia, cats come in my back garden and leave their calling card as mine is the only one with grass.

Not with Luna, she is truly adorable. The other cats leaves their sh-t indeed, David, but with Luna coming into my backyard, no dirts of other cats anymore. Luna helped me to oversee my own backyard, lol

I THOUGHT they love brown sand, my backyard garden has grass and sand.But Luna is clean, she let all her calling cards at home (her home) . Thank you David for your lovely response.

She visits you only because of your love and compassion. Cats are cute, naughty and adorable, I am sure she enjoys your company and backyard to rest for a while. Who know she must be getting mousy dreams as well.....Great write Madam Sylvia.5*****
