Cat Poems

'I control the mice with a cat, but how shall I control the cat?' - Franz Kafka

"I control the mice with a cat, but how shall I control the cat?" - Franz Kafka

Description

You know how a cat will bring a mouse it has caught and lay it at your feet. So, each morning, I bring you a poem that I've written when I woke up in the night as my tribute to your beauty.

Cats endlessly captivate and hypnotise, frustrate and delight. To poets, in particular, these enigmatic creatures are the most delightful and beguiling of muses, as they purr, prowl, hunt, play, meow, and nap, often oblivious to their so-called masters.

Cat Poems offers a litter of odes to our beloved felines by some of the greatest poets of all time.
