Dearest Cat

Poem Inspired by my love, and the original Alice in Wonderland's Cheshire cat.

Dearest Cheshire Cat-

With your Catnip Charm...

 

Who... are... you... really?

 

(Mouthed Mirror Grin?)**

Comfort Reflected from With In?

 

(No Courage Lion, No Dorothy)

What is this unknown to me?

 

A Cheshire Cat-

You just may be

With Instinctual Curiosity.

 

Flirting such an oddity -

with familial familiarity.

 

A Cheshire Cat-

You just may be

With Instinctual Curiosity.

 

And What resides

Behind guised eyes?

 

Which Path to Follow?

Any Hindrance Swallowed.

 

Your dancing shoes are always on.

Now Temper Them With Caution

 

And What courage could be found

In one that hides underground?

I have set you stuck in my tree-

And such Reveals Insecurity.

 

Yet This Fever from your cat scratch

Slowly sets yearning- itching rash

 

Cheshire Cat-

You Just may be

Instinctual Curiosity

 

Dearest Cheshire cat

Where have you gone?

 

Hurry Back...

 

Reply some riddled song?

Author's Note

Love is what you believe it to be. Never have I seen the truth of it.
