Bird at the window/Cat at the door

Bird at the window/Cat at the door

Seagull knocking at my window
Cat mewing loudly at my sitting room door
Letterbox flapping wildly in the wind
Ocean roaring at my blue painted door.

Welcome to my crazy life
Not short on edginess or spice
Looking out on the late September Sun
Beachcombers; joggers taking an evening run.

Murphy's full of grass seeds
His fur like a gardener's treasure trove
He's been stalking in the graveyard
Rolling in the Autumn sun; not trying too hard

I'm sat betwixt him and Sven
My pet seagull, not a Swedish hen..
He wants his supper now I'm home
Can't wait for me to finish on the phone

Svenka's on the roof across the way,
Two young 'uns - guess she's had a busy day
The endless plaintive calls of gulls
Of wind and waves and thoughts that mull...

I'm just trying to drink a cup of Lapsang tea
Me, the Gulls and the endless roaring sea
Taking out 5 minutes from my day
To write a jot, post a little; not a lot

So thanks for sharing this write with me
The bird, the cat and the ever roaring sea.
