Poem -
THE CATS AMONG THE PIGEONS
THE BELLS WILL RINGÂ
THE CHILDREN WILLÂ
SING THERE CHRISTMAS
CAROLS AND THE PRIEST
WILL SAY THEIR PRAYERS
IN THE SQUARE WHERE
THE CATS AND THE PIGEONS
PLAY THERE SILLY GAMES,
ON CHILLY NIGHTS WHEN
THE WIND BLOWS THEÂ
LEAVES FROM THE EAVES
FROM THE CHURCH WHERE
THE PIGEONS PERCH
IN THE SQUARE THE CRISTMAS
TREE LIGHTS UP THE NIGHTÂ
OH WHAT SIGHT
AND THE CATS
AND THE PIGEONS PLAYÂ
THERE SILLY GAMES.
FROM THE FLAMESÂ OF THEÂ
CANDLES IN THE CHURCH
Â
WHERE THE PIGEONSÂ
PERCH WHERE THEÂ
CATS WILL LURCHÂ OUT
AT THE PIGEONS IN FUN
THE CATS AMONG THE PIGEONS,

Hi Greg, I think your imagery just gets better and better. This has a lot of atmosphere to it. You convey an eerie scene that could even be symbolic in its meaning. Absolutely LOVE your poetryÂ
I think the use of capitalisation adds to the feel of this write really well

A standout write Greg and a real pearler of Christmas and foreboding scenery threaded throughout.
Great and bold imagery cleverly balanced and displayed a superb read and poem all in one.

who would want to be a pigeon these days, it's not like it was back in the day .. an interesting post Greg .. made me think of foggy days, half light & being surrounded by grey ................................... NevilleÂ
I am not a big fan of pigeons myself but this poem came to me watching a Agatha Christie show and the name of the show was called the cats among the pigeons but it wasn’t about Cats and pigeons somebody
Somebody got murdered and I had to solve the case but I like the title
I like the title too :)
