Good write CB.
One of our two cats rolls over on the ground! She is playing really, but we are careful not to get scratched.
Our other big Tom cat rolls over a bit too, but can't be bothered with our fussing sometimes. lol.
Oh yea, Mumble was a feisty one from birth. Named after Mumble of Happy Feet, was also a sigma male, fiercely independent and quite the self-reliant feline.
loved this, dear Poet
took me back to T.S. Eliot
in style
and especially a few lines
from his 'Rhapsody on a Windy Night':
'The street lamp said, 'Regard that woman
Who hesitates towards you in the light of the door
Which opens on her like a grin.
You see the border of her dress
Is torn and stained with sand,
And you see the corner of her eye
Twists like a crooked pin.'
(and you know he liked his cats as well
lol)
Cat persons tend to write it would seem. LOL But there are quite a number of dog persons that write too. Why that should matter, I have no clue, being both and neither.
This is thought provoking and maybe shouldn't be. The chesire cat and I think of Lewis Carrol, then the cat reminds me of Hemmingway and his six toed cats, the upside down smile and things are reversed. The lady from down under, Australia? Is it the rhyme? Freshly frayed? Usually frays take a long time. Browned Gown? How do you brown a gown? In the oven of course. See my poor mind has just gone down a rabbit hole.

Quite, kind Soren, that is the provocation of mixed metaphors make for a quandarous labyrinth of warrens.
