Poetry Friday: Frosted in Place


Poetry Friday

Frosted in Place

In a tight
black ball,
the cat
perches
atop
the wooden fence post
and waits
for
the frosty
white grass
to thaw.

Lorie,

Thanks for joining us bloggers who sometimes post our original poems on Poetry Friday--as well as at other times. I'm going to add On Point to my blogroll at Wild Rose Reader.

P.S. I like your poem.
