Leaves rustled
My kitty on alert, focussed
Barely a breath of wind
My book would have to wait
Two squirrels vying for the same branch
One scrambled higher
The other sat quietly and stared
At me?
At the black cat, hampered by a dumb leash,
desperately wanted to pounce.
Photo snapped, back to my book.
“Well, it may be humorous to you,
but it’s a very serious matter to the squirrels.”
