A unique perspective for a poem. The title peaked my interest. The picture is gorgeous.
This poem took me from a hot
June day to an overcast October morning. And I like it!

This is a nice poem that, in my opinion, covers the atmospheric adventures of a cat. His soft gray body appears to match the gray surrounding its activities. This was an interesting writing.

This is a very nice nonet poem. It works very well in how the long descriptions are in the top lines, and the feelings are slowly, sweetly, are going down the lines. Great observations in a sweet caht's behavior. Free to feel the weather.

A lovely poem surrounding the foray of your grey cat. They do experience so much of what nature doles out on a daily basis. Imagine being able to bounce around, up and down, like a cat. This is a good entry.

Thank you for sharing this poem with us, especially me. I have often wondered why one of my cats chooses the weather he does to go out. It made no sense to this poor little human. He wants to shrouded in a cloud for hunting. LOL I would prefer to go out in beautiful moon light, not A.J. He stays in on those night.

    Hi Barbara,

    Yes, my cat is a strange little mess too. Love him dearly! He prefers questionable weather too. In fact he acts more human than anything these days, lol. I never know what to expect.

    Thanks for a lovely review and comments. Both are greatly appreciated!

Your poem draws the prose writer into the shadowy mist and makes her want to follow the little cat as it stalks its prey hidden by the fog. Welld done. Thank you for sharing. Smiles, Carol

Hello Senyai!
Love the atmospheric imagery of your well-crafted nonet. I can picture the morning and your cat as he/she makes his/her way stalking the thrushes!
If I were to offer any suggestion, and a minor one at that, it would be two switch "Mist morning" to "Morning mist" as when I read "Mist morning," I kept inserting "Misty." :)

Thank you for sharing!

Best wishes!

    Hi Diane,

    Thank you for your expert review. I will take your suggestion to heart and consider that change. I thought of that but that would make too many syllables :-)

    I always value your input and thoughts. They are truly appreciated!

hmm liked this poem about a cat wandering about in the fog enveloped in the fog and disappearing into the morning mists. Well done. like the format - I assume it is a variation of the Nonnet form?

I do like this a lot as you have described the foggy atmosphere and the cat slinking through the fog very well, with clever use of alliteration. It is a great entry for the Nonet contest, good wishes. Well written.

    Hi Wendy,

    Good to hear from you again! This is my first attempt at writing a Nonet. It was fun actually, as I found this form enjoyable to try and master.

    Thank you for such a lovely review and comments.

    Both are surely appreciated!

I enjoyed this Nonet poem. Cats are fascinating creatures, slinking around and becoming invisible when they want to be. So selfish though they cuddle when it suits them and not when you want to be cuddly. Nicely written.
