Love Poem: The Sound of Home

The Sound of Home

A little head bonk turns a frown upside down;
Just a little tug on your dangling hair, 
a silly ball of yarn and they become a clown;

With a chorus of purrs following everywhere 
running around chasing catnip
with large eyes, they hold your stare

the very definition of love and friendship 
little ears hiding in the shadows
a jump, a leap, a crazy back flip 

Picking you up when you’re low, 
a cat’s meow turns a house into a home.
