My cat poetry book, Meows and Purrs: A Collection of Cat Poems, is on sale for 99 cents through October 28. The poems are inspired by my current and past cats. Some are funny; others are sad, but all reflect the beauty, intelligence, and special characteristics of these animals. Along with the poems, I’ve included photos and notes about the cats.
In addition to the eBook sale, I have some limited coupon codes for the free audiobook version. If you’d like one, send an email to me at debbiewriter@yahoo.com with the subject line: “Free Audiobook Offer” and let me know if you are from the U.S. or U.K.
Hermione enjoyed checking out the poem dedicated to her, “I Know a Calico.”
I know a calico
who crosses her paws
kneads soft blankets,
pillows, and throws.
I know a calico
with pretty green eyes
a tri-color tail
and the sweetest cry.
I know a calico
who plays with toy coils
bats them under chairs
and around the floor.
I know a calico
who purrs when you pet her
perches in high places
tops of closets and refrigerators.
I know a calico
Who’s smart and wise
when you take her photo,
she closes her eyes.
I know a calico
who growls at strangers by the door
chatters when she hears birds call.
I know a calico
with white boots and gloves
a precious cat anyone would love.
I know a calico who deserves a poem
She’s the one who lives in my home.
