Nighttime stars
I noticed that when I open up the windows on a cool summer night like
tonight, the house seems to get a lot livelier all of a sudden. Buster wants to be the star of the show, and from outside you can see him going from window to window, pulling aside blinds and curtains when necessary. His constantly moving and busy silhouette against the bright indoor lights makes him a most visible and striking spectacle. Looking at my house at night is like watching some kind of play, and you'd swear there are several characters, and not just one actor playing them all. In the meantime, Dot is doing her own graceful performance of "Dances with Moths", hopping on her hind legs as the crickets chirp and applaud. |

Which when I think of it is a silly way of answering. Except for the crickets, no sound, even imagined, involved. You created a picture of a lovely evening. Looks lovely would be closer. Jo |

I say, yeah, it's nice and warm here, I think I'll wear shorts today. :) -- Victor M. Martinez Owned and operated by the Fantastic Seven (TM) Send your spam he Email me he |

Buster might be remembering all the mousies, bunnies, and gophers out there. There are six windows in our den, and if I open them, there;s a cat in five of them. If I had neighbors, they'd think I was a cat collector. Boots used to be impossible to get indoors at night if it was a nice night with a full moon. There are two games I had to play to get her in; one was "chase me around the car three times, then I'll run under the garage door." The other one was "I'll sit on the top of the car, just out of your reach, then when I'm good and ready, I'll jump down on the hood, and you snatch me off the car and carry me in." That girl NEVER came in the door on her own accord. Sherry |

They used to tell me the state motto was "40 Below Keeps Out the Riff Raff." ;) -- Theresa, Stinky and Dante drtmuirATearthlink.net Stinky Pictures: http://community.webshots.com/album/125591586JWEFwh |

I reported earlier in the year that a neighbor of mine took in a cat and her four kittens, and now the kittens are big, there are always cats bouncing in and out of the front window. Often, a few of them are sleeping in a pile in the sun. Very entertaining. -- Theresa, Stinky and Dante drtmuirATearthlink.net Stinky Pictures: http://community.webshots.com/album/125591586JWEFwh |

I didn't know you were a poet, Tak! Nose Kisses, CatNipped |
