So so sorry that we don't have a 6 star review to give you, but you certainly earned our vote. We have a cat too, but that's not why we voted for you. We voted for you because in our opinion this poem is by far the best poem in the contest. Both the picture and the poem are exceptional. Best of luck in the contest.

This poem, Kitty Playtime, is an hilarious run-through of a probable day-in-the-life of an actual cat. They do the darnedest things and then go on their way.

Very cute! I loved the kitty antics and the computer puns. (Cursors!) And the picture is priceless. Great job with the internal and end rhymes and the whole playful tone. Best wishes in the contest!

This is a cute poem from the cat's point of view about life on a computer.
It is cute how you use the computer terms as puns. I don't think the cat will get to play after she ruins the drapes, though.
Good luck in the contest
Keep writing and stay healthy.

Cats are truly a blessing, if ones on the phone, they think they are the centre of your universe, so they'll tub up against you. My wife's been teaching French by zoom, and who gets the attention, the cat purring and passing by the camera. Beautifully written, a great free verse entry in this contest, blessings, Roy

Thanks for your lovely review, Roy. (Does your cat purr in French??)

Haha, you have pegged your kitty well, Mystery Writer. I enjoyed reading your fun poem. Your end rhymes and internal rhymes are great. Your lines flow smoothly with great imagery. I could see all that you wrote. The picture is perfect, too. I love the POV of the kitty.
Thanks for sharing nd best wishes.
Respectfully, Jan

Lol. great piece, L. So, you let your new kitty have run of the house, huh? Even on your laptop? My cats have some freedom but my computer and keypad is a serious no no. Lol. Excellent piece for the contest. I wish you the best of luck...unless I join, of course. Haha. You've been on a killer winning streak lately. Keep up the good work.

Hello :)
I think I recognise this playful kitty!
Your poem is really enjoyable to read. There's so much going on (kitty chaos mostly!) and the character and sass of your mischievous girl really comes through. I love how you verbalise 'her' thoughts :)
The 'cursors!' line is my favourite part of the poem - love the wordplay and the internal rhyming also.
Good luck in the contest!
Best wishes, Debra :)

This is very sweet, lightheated poem and I enjoyed reading it. I love the point of view. You did a good job at capturing the cat's inner musings. I like the way the cat is trying to get the author's attention throughout. The rhyming is done well. I love the word choices and the flow. I'm not sure if you have a typo in the first line. You have "What can be more fun that me?" I think you meant to write, "What can be more fun than me?" Good luck in the contest.

Delightfully clever--I can relate having two cats who jump on me inopportunely--you may have a winner with this witty and whimsical cat and mouse play. Cheers. LIZ
