Wild cats were all we ever knew growing up, the especially feral ones rarer but our purring friends likewise, more especially since Mum didn\'t like house cats. I love cats so dearly I\'ve been adorning my walls with their photos since high school. If only I could land a free kitten or two it\'d be even more fun. Thank you so very, very much for this charming piece on them!!! Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a haunting, charming poignancy. I love it!

I guess you know how to tastefully describe the ecstasies of the bedroom in pretty detail from the man\'s point of view. My la! Excellently rendered with fitting imagery and a steamy poignancy. Thank you.

Tough read Thomas. I just wanted to cry for the hard times your neighbor has found himself in. A clean out by the bailiffs and a handcuffing, just heart breaking. You tell it so well.

They still keep their dignity and humanity, while those who prey upon hem lost it themselves. A very good poem of injustice.

Hooray for you. This is a subject too often unreported and ignored. People\'s misconceptions and carelessness with cats, even more than with dogs, is tragic. I have actually been told that \"men don\'t have cats\". Same people will cry about homelessness.

So well written Thomas your poems have grown in a growth spurt. I found this one particularly lovely. Very human it speaks of inhumanity and ends with a very powerful line.

A example of how life and people have changed, it seems at every opportunity these days there are people waiting to clean you out. Powerfully worded, well written.

Wow profoundly powerful. This poem works both in the literal sense as well as point us to question something even broader. Well done with this, my friend! 🌹👏

I spent Christmas 1999 in a psyche ward. Learned that people who claim to hear voices really do. And yes, it\'s the women. Nice work.
