Hi everyone,
Please find below the latest entry in Purrsday Poetry by Bernie Colley.
The Christmas Tree
The kittens gathered round to see
the Christmas tree arrive
they wondered what this thing could be
as it was carried up the drive
Once inside a pot was found
and filled with earth and sand
the tree was placed like in the ground
and left alone to stand
The kittens went to investigate
and sniffed and sneezed away
until the time to decorate
was once more under way
Tinsel wrapped around the tree
and balls of glittering light
fairy lights that they could see
were a fascinating sight
The mother cat warned them away
and said do not go near
or Santa will not come your way
her warning was quite clear
The kittens swore they would be good
as Christmas eve drew near
they curled up where the big clock stood
for he would soon be here
Outside the reindeer braved the cold
as Santa took the gifts in
and smiled down at the cats so bold
who weren’t supposed to see him
The mother cat left them alone
so they could see the reason
why Christmas time a cat at home
is part of the festive season

I LOVE the photos! The poem reminded me of the cat, in my family, who climbed UP the tree and sent it crashing down! I was a little kid, and I don’t remember that at all, but hey – why not participate oh frisky feline…
One word comes to mind – Timber! Lol

So sweet! I know my cat looooves Christmas (even though she’s not a kitten anymore haha). Her excitement is part of why Christmas is so special?
Cute! Adorable photos! Reminds me of our Patches whenever we put up our tree!
Merry Christmas! 🙂
