Siamese Cat

It is twilight
The coming out of cats
On the hills' reddened backs
By the harbor

I
Am a whole carat of light

and these people,
Prey going home.

In my time
I

The moon's blue cousin
Hearing the whispering of stars

Lick your favors by the fire
Blink in your wide brown eyes
Settle in your heart.

I am one paw's length of love.

~Robert James Berry
