Prelude to Winter


sunlight through the window
a warm spot on the cat tree
sunroom benefits explored
a satisfied feline sleeps...
tree limbs block the view
children frolic outside
noise disturbs the birds
hiding from the cold...
a rotten tree stump on the
ground sits silent waiting
to be uprooted, leaving
its residents homeless...
fallen leaves on the ground
lay undisturbed as cats
walk between them, keeping
their paws dry - creative
thought tell them the wet,
brown grass is much better;
hoodies and gloves worn
by children are the markers
of the winter season and
yet the cat in the sunroom
disagrees with the analysis.
