"Feline Dreams" --in memory of Winnie-cat the Milky Way empties itself of pure white light into the moon's shining bowl the cat stretches languid her body liquid smooth like moonbeams she reaches for silent and thirsting Her head dips into the cosmic saucer rough pink tongue darting in and out lapping up this lunar feast Luminosity fills her beneath each fluttering eyelid *Although this poem was inspired by a tweet, I’m posting and dedicating it to my sweet kitty, who died January 2nd. Rest in Peace, Winnie.
