Many think of them as scrumptious

Tend to make your body bumptious

Not to sound overly gumptious

My homemade brownies toothsome.

#TankaTuesday #Ekphrastic #Poetry Challenge No. 330, July 25, 2023

This week’s Story Starter teaser is: The biggest difference between a man and a cat is that a cat has nine lives. The main house cat, Feral, knew this as a fact because he had experienced many men as masters over the hundred and twelve years he was on earth. This latest man was a distraction as he often listened to loud opera music and Feral took to his secret refuge in the yard behind the house whenever the master was home. It wouldn’t be long before the old master would be deaf/dead or both and the household would once again be a peaceful place to sleep. Being 112, Feral, himself, gradually slept more and more. This didn’t worry him as he was only on his fifth cycle of lives.
