Chilly Evening

Samantha and I were resting our eyes, After dinner in my reclining chair. An hour or so later, I woke with a shiver, For Sammy was no longer there! Where did she go?  My mind was still foggy, It was clearly quite difficult to think. When Sam jumped on the chair, with her best kitty…

Samantha and I were resting our eyes, After dinner in my reclining chair. An hour or so later, I woke with a shiver, For Sammy was no longer there! Where did she go?  My mind was still foggy, It was clearly quite difficult to think. When Sam jumped on the chair, with her best kitty stare, She had only hopped off for a drink. 11/23/2025

Timing is Everything

Where there were timely stories to tell, We'd send town criers or bards. Even though it is not Thanksgiving, Should I send out Christmas Cards? 11/16/2025

Mmmm…

When I finally get home at the end of the day, And recline in my favorite easy chair. Sammy climbs up on my chest and purring, Decides to take a nap right there. A kitty and her Dad, A Dad and his kitty. Share a moment of peace, In this bustling old city. 11/07/2025

The Consternation of Sammy

My big old behind is in my chair, And I'm not going anywhere. Sam might howl or she might mao, But I'm not moving anyhow. She could be mad, probably just jelly, Never mind, she's taking a nap on my belly. 11/02/2025

Ho, Ho, Ho?

The Holiday season is going full-swing, And what do you think about that? Some say it's too early for my Santa suit, So I'm going to try a different hat. 11/01/2025

Sammy’s Favorite

The guidance counselor never mentioned this option, Just scientist, cowboy, sociopath, barnstormer. But after all these years, my true talent shines through, As a sub-zero, ice-cold kitty toe warmer. 10/25/2025

It’s All The Rage

I am not rehashing fashion, And this is not simply an homage. But as winter draws ever-nearer, Get yourself a nice warm kitty corsage. 10/23/2025

My Furry Assistant

Not being a touch-typist, And can't see the keys, I fail. Yet my skills are quite impressive, Having to type around Sammy and her tail. 10/19/2025

Loudest Purr Ever

Trying to get into the Halloween spirit, My ancient spell book threw me a hex. Perhaps I shouldn't have used three mirrors, Because now I'm stuck with a Sammysaurus Rex! 10/12/2025

Winter must be approaching, Though today was still 90 degrees. Because last night Sammy jumped on the bed, To snuggle up with me. 10/04/2025

Therapy

My poetry hasn't won any awards, Gotten me dates or made the benjamins rain. So why do I continue this futile folly? Because it helps clear the voices from my brain. 09/28/2025

Then There’s the Tuna Issue

They tell me, you should marry your best friend, But I really don't understand how. I'm a big, old bone-headed bumble, And Sammy's a kitten who says, "Meow!" 09/21/2025

Sammy Warned Me

Thumb-wresting with an orangutang, While Psyduck chauffeurs us in our Mustang. Mixing curry, tuna salad, bologna, chili, cayenne, Before bed is something I'll never ever do again. 09/07/2025

All Night Long

A coworker said they would haunt me if they died, Complete with clanking chains and boos. Hope they like music cause I'm jamming all night, To showtunes, rock, rhythm and blues. 08/30/2025

Unanswered Question, Why?

Fixings on the plate at the diner, With your burger, you take that in stride. But if you decide to have a BLT, Everything is served already inside. 08/17/2025

Back to Reality

Been feeling beat up, torn up and torn down, Broadsided and left reeling in a ditch. Sensing my turmoil, Sam jumps in my lap, And asks, "Are you going to finish that sandwich?" 08/10/2025

It’s Unfair

A close family member died this week, It's hard to believe that they're gone. And when I look outside my window, I can plainly see, that everyone else's life gets to go on. 08/08/2025

Dark Day

Each falling raindrop is a dream, A hope, a wish I once had. They splatter into pieces, As they strike the ground. To be slowly washed away. 07/26/2025

Sammy and I are two of a kind, Sitting together, watching the birds. We also enjoy an afternoon snack, Though she licks the ranch off my cheese curds. 07/20/20025

Feeling rather invisible lately, Not lost, just all alone. Perhaps today will be the day, When I'm finally going home. 07/12/2025

When my time is up and I depart, Please think of me with lenience. At my cenotaph these words you'll see, "Good Luck, kids.  Sorry for the inconvenience." 07/06/2025

It Helps Me

When life has been playing a little too rough, And my mood should be more sanguine. If Sammy is not hanging around, I hug my stuffy penguin. 06/29/2025
