HRH Mali

My cat Mali is nuts, complete split personality and as gobby as all Siamese cats are.

She is sleekness personified.
Cream fur of silk,
Azure eyes and razor claws.
She is fast and fierce,
Lazy and loving.
Her voice can be a song and a siren.
She is sneaky and cheeky.
A thief and a queen.
Quick as a whirlwind,
Relaxed as a dream

Hehehe... cats... they make me sneeze. I think you've captured the schizophrenic side(s) of your cat pretty well in this; she seems to the the sort of gal you'd meet on a night out, spend a night of mind-blowing debauchery with, only to wake up alone in the hotel room with your back scratched to bits, your wallet missing and an outstanding bill to pay... and possibly cat AIDS.
I don't know much about cats...
I did like the poem though. :)

Great description of a cat and her personality. This is a one size fits all description. We have several and they fit that mold, and we love everyone of them.

Nice poem.

I really enjoyed this poem. It is just perfect for the contest.

Aha, i was expecting some poem about the country, maybe Timbuktoo or a ship..not that Mali needs ships. And low, its about your very own moggy.

Lovely tribute to an elegant feline! (Mine are just rough-and-ready alley cats) Neat play with alliteration, too. ... I�d love to be "relaxed as a dream".

Oh how I wish my cat was all of those things... makes me reconsider my purchase of an ordinary black male cat.

"She is sleekness personified".... I love that line.
