Cat In My Car

Slinky, little bugger--
blue-grayish hue--
You're looking at me,
I'm looking at you.

Crouched down inside
the back of my car,
among the clothes and books
you look so bizarre.

Little green eyes,
a rough, scratchy cry;
Please come out of the car
little kitty, you make me sigh.

The Time

I can't remember a time
when i felt you here--
your breath close to my ear.

I can't remember a time
in which I knew
the moment I loved you.

I can't remember a time
I held you close
and felt you near the most.

But, my dear, I remember this well:
the time, yes, the time
I knew you were mine.
