the cat sits
& stares out at
the pouring rain
pungent earth
beads sparkle
on velvet green
daylily orange
black-eyed susans
yellow as sun
mice motor
between tufts
a groundhog
stands to nibble
tops of weeds
harmonizing
to phoebe, vireo
flicker, crow
the cat chitters
moans miaows
heaven, he muses
must be a world
where I’ll be
out there too
