For the majority of my observations, my cat slept. She seems to do that a lot. Occasionally, she would meander around the house, bumping into assorted furniture. But even in her sleep, there is beauty to be seen. I saw things I had never seen before. Her whiskers shift with her breathing, and will twitch every now and then. Her tail will twitch as well, and will maneuver as if she is awake. Who knows, she could be awake, wondering why in the world I am staring at her so intently. She also sleeps on her stomach, always. It really doesn't look that comfortable, but she seems to find enjoyment in it. Her fur is the most spectacular of all, however. Each of her hairs has many colors streaked across it, some having up to six different colors. It gives her a very speckled coat of brown (dark and light), black and white, and it shines in the sun. Already these observations have shown me things I had overlooked for years, and this is only the beginning.
There is something lyrical and purposeful and rhythmic about your writing style. I think post serves as an unexpected but effective introduction.
ReplyDeleteMy cat can sleep all day. He also twitches a lot when he is sleep, I feeling like it shows that they are actually dreaming. I agree that watching cats sleep can show beauty. My cat likes sleeping where the sun hits, which shows all the different shades of gray in his fur. I like they way your blog flows.
