Part 16

Morning dawned cool and fresh, just the opposite of my pent-up and feverish thoughts. I lay in my cot a few moments after waking because I knew I wouldn’t be able to look Bart in the eye without it all coming out.

When I did get up, though, I found I had a respite. Bart and some of the others were making sweeps outside the camp, checking and setting a few traps to give us fresh meat supply.

Craigin was already up and Gern’s bedroll was rumpled and body-less.

26. The Tragedy of the Marble Cat
This marble cat sits
On a marble windowsill,
Watching everlasting asphalt streets.
On marble haunches,
Teases metal cars
With its sleek, cold grace.
Lifelike marble tail,
Slender as hairless stone can be,
Almost seems to swing,
With a touch of imagination.
Bright emerald eyes wink,
Almost intelligently.
But not for all the imagination in the world
Will this marble cat ever
Catch a single real mouse.

I dreamed a dream of sunshine

Please read Destiny:Prolouge on my account before trying to understand this story. Or read the Warriors Series by Erin Hunter. Either one!!! 

... this is based on the cat who sits under our window and meows up at our kitty. We nicknamed them "Romeow" and "Julicat" though their names are really "Ojo" and "Sunny." 

Enjoy. :) 

Down below the window wide,

At morning, noon, or eventide,

Came Romeow in all his glory,

But not to chase a rainbow lory.

For seated in the window wide,

A-lying on her side,

Lolled the fair Julicat,

Soaking sunshine where she sat.

"Julicat, O Julicat,

"How I love thee, dear cat!"

Called Romeow, a-wailing

Hi Apricotpie Clan of mine! By now you may have noticed that I(teehee)have a terrible horrible habit of not finishing stories!!! aack it bugs me! but anyway, I haven't posted in a while, so there's this story, that I haven't yet posted, but it's like 30 pages long, so i think i will post it now because it is long enough that it will never catch up to me! but this paticular story will be very hard for you to understand because it is like a series I read (WARRIORS!!)
so i will tell you how it goes before I post the first section. Here it is!!

I know I'm not really supposed to bring my cat into the house since Steve (my stepdad) is allergic, but................everyone was gone and I couldn't resist. I got up form the computer and went outside and whistled and called her a few times. M-kity came trotting out from underneath one of the vehicles and curled around my ankles. (Yes, my cat does come when I whistle and call her name-usually) I picked her up and carried her in the house and sat back down on the computer and alternated petting her and typing. She reciprocated by purring and kneading my legs very hard.
