I am thankful for my friend the one spoiled cat providing the photo the photo for Poetry Thursday
I give thanks to my friends thetwo spoiled cats for providing this week’s photo
Jax had a hard time making friends
And thought it would be that way to the end
But in the barnyard he found someone that made him perky
Who called herself Mac and was a turkey
Ii
For Jax making friends was hard
Until he found the friendly little clucker in the yard
On the farm neither Jax or Mac had a purpose
And one another they did worship
Iii
Seeing her food uptake Jax said it looked like they were trying to fatten his friend up
Food is always noticed by a pup
And by fall Mac had grown quite plump
Carrying most of hus weight in his dump.
IV
Jax was worried about his friends intake of cholesterol.
As his size expanded before late fall
Then Mac disappeared, Jax surmised he went away
Just a short time before Thanksgiving day
V
On the fourth Thursday in November the house was busy
So much activity made him dizzy
He wandered into the dining room
And felt a sense of doom
Vi
Had the barbarians slaughtered his friend for dinner?
Was the family he loved full of sinners?
Was it time to go on the run?
Before he too came under the gun?
Vii
Then the door opened and Jax was happy to see Mac enter
But his friend said something that touched his nerve center
Mac exclaimed with dread
Oh my God, their eating my wife Mildred
