Welcome to another installment of Poetic Thursday here on These Days. As we usually do, we’re joining our friend, Pam, and her kitties, Teddy and Angel Sammy, at Two Spoiled Cats, for poetry. They gave us this photo for our inspiration:

And here’s my poem (another short one this week):

As I scrolled down through the picture, I thought, “Is this man crazy?” Then I read your PERFECT two-line poem! Nothing else to say!!!
