A bright orange glow
you sit in the hedgerow
thinking you are hidden
and will get to catch the forbidden
but little do you know
your gingerness does show
even though you’re so still sitting
your camouflage seems to be what’s missing
You see the birds and can contain the frolics
but I’m sorry Rastas –
You stand out like dog’s bollocks!
You must wonder how come you don’t catch a bird
they must look at you and think you’re absurd
You’ll never catch them in your bright orange coat
Or feel their silky feathers in the back of your throat
I’ve seen the odd field mouse stiff on the bricks
but I just know, that’s not how you want your kicks
A crispy crunchy sparrow or a larger tasty minor
or perhaps a tender inside bird, something a little finer…

It really reminds me of my cat that I lost last year. I still have it’s scar on my hand.

Everything born is doomed to die, cats are funnier when they’re brightly coloured, trying to hide behind a daisy or buttercup. They’re missed when they die just the same. Have a great week, Kait, looking forward to this week being less hectic but just as busy lol xoxo

Oh my goodness, so cute! It reminds me of my neighbor’s cat, he’s always crouched behind a teeny little flower or something, thinking that no one can see him.

Hahaha! I know – they are so funny 🙂 Their ego’s must be massive to think that they have hidden themselves well enough!
