The Minder


Photo Image: Courtesy of Bonnie's Original Art Studio

Watchful Eyes

Fluffy white and piercing eyes
Surveying the horizon
Ever watchful and ever alert
For the welfare of a young maiden

What's new pussycat?
Ever protective of your ward
A budding ballerina
Meant for fame
A charming Primadonna
In the making
Vying for a name

You are larger than life
You look pretty smart
You'll survive
Any impending assault

Its a tall order
For a minder!

Inspired by Friday Politically with Brian

    That cat does indeed look large enough to take on just about anything.
