A Poetic Thankful Thursday

Hi (Furry)furriends😻

…Granny…

why can’t I come up

on the ironing board…

…you know…

when we do it together

it will go faster…

it was fast enough

Faye…

…besides…

you could burn your paws

on the hot iron…

Granny was more than

T H A N K F U L

that we helped her

in our way…

…see…

we got our brekkies

right after the work was done…

and Grandpaw brought us

new cat grass

because with the colder weather

it just hangs down there…

…sorry no picture of it

but you can trust us that it’s here…

now let’s finish our dish

in mirror image…

…wait…

talking about mirrors…

we have to do our poem

for our furriends

Angel Sammy and Teddy…

on this picture…

“I still see what I want to see

the younger version of me

reflects my illusion

and my fantasy

she’s still hidden

deep down in me

and comes out

when I need her to be

we never grow old

that’s what I see

the reflection of my soul

and a little wishful thinking

deep down in me.”

We also are

T H A N K F U L

for a wonderful sign

of our beloved bro

angel Stippie…

…see…

Little Faye put her toy

in his bowl…

something she had never done

before…

but which he always did…

and me too😹

…see…

I like that Granny…

maybe I do it more often

now I know that it makes you happy…

it doesn’t work that way

Little Faye…

we know when it’s a sign

and when it’s not…

but if you like to do it more often

be my guest

…MOL…

😸Have a Happy Thursday my furriends😸

🙏Stay Safe Healthy and Yourselfie🙏

    Humans never seem to appreciate our help, Faye. I like to put my toys in my water dish. ~Cheeto

    Adorable photos, and I love the poem. Ageing is what we make of it, and to live a fulfilling life is key. I love the sign from Angel Stippie, and our angel kitties are always in our heart. Hugs! 😽

    I like the poem and the toy in the bowl. As for the ironing, yes, keep away, it’s hot and not fun to get too close.

    Oh little Faye I’m so glad you didn’t try to help with the ironing on top of the board and kept your little paw safe.

    Charlee: “At least you get to watch the ironing board! We all get locked right out of the bedroom when Mama irons her clothes!”Lulu: “What about when Dada irons his clothes?”Charlee: “If that ever happens I will let you know.”

    I enjoyed your poetry more than I can express here. I discussed the picture with One Spoiled Cat regarding how I felt about that picture. It really touched me when I saw it and brought many thoughts.

    Ironing, now that’s a chore Lynn does not like and I never see her do it often, mol.

    As always, precious photos and a really touching poem – aging is an option for our “thinking” but not an option for our bodies….however, I have always believed that we are as we want to be in our imaginations. I see a long life lived with a smile when I look in my mirror. Love the sweet sign from Angel Stippie. Our Angels are always there – quietly – softly but there.

    Big WARM hugs, Pam and Teddy
