Like A Cat

Like A Cat

A Poem by Carnation
"

You are like a cat, my dear.

"
You are like a cat, my dear,
You vanish as quick as light.
But if I put a leash on you,
You shall never be out of sight.

Yet if I put a leash on you,
You will never be free.
You won't be able to roam the earth,
Sailing the great blue seas.

So what if I put a bell on you,
You can travel anywhere.
And all I have to ever do,
Is listen for the bell, is that fair.

You are like a cat, my dear,
You vanish as quick as light.
But if I put a bell on you,
You shall never be hard to find.

Just made it up in my head like..., 10 seconds ago.
At least it's something! I finally got out of my Writers Block (I think!).

Honestly, I think if you put a beat to this it would make for a good song. Maybe a soft indie song. Death Cab for Cutie maybe?

It flows nicely. Not much to be said besides it's cutes. :3

I like it.

I loved it. Its a really adorable piece. :) It reminded me of my dog Angel. She was extremely sneaky to the point of it scaring us so we put a bell on her neck to hear her coming.

She held the bell in her mouth when she walked around. >_<

But anyways you're a very talented writer. Keep it up. :)
