Ah yes………….our little bit of poetic license (do you have to have a license to write a poem??!!!) is taken on Thursdays when we gather together to celebrate another letter of the alphabet. We are sliding down the hill towards “Z” quickly now. Today we are using the letter “U” as our springboard to a poem! Are you ready?
…U…
“Ultimate”
By Sammy Kimmell 11/3/16
I live in the ultimate home
Mom loves me down to the bone!
I get whatever I want to eat
Whether main meals or a tasty treat.
If I’m poorly Mom will take me to the vet
The nicest doctor I’ve ever met!
I’ve got everything I could possibly desire
Cold nights I can lie by the fire….
I love every minute of my days
They are special in so many ways
At my age each day is a gift
As the sands of time I do sift………..
I’m the happiest cat I could be
Living life oh so ULTIMATELY!
Oh boy – there goes “U” and next up is “V” which might be a challenge………….I’ll start thinking about that one NOW……………then next Thursday I can whip out a “V” with no problem (I hope!). If you wrote a poem for “U” and have it on your blog today – leave your blog link in my comments so we can visit you and read your poem! If you want to, you can write your poem in comments here, and we can all read it. Let’s share…….let’s get POETIC!!!!
You ARE the ultimate!!

Hi Sammy! Here is my poem:
UNDER
Under everything I go
Under not over
Fast and not slow.
Looking fur my squeaky toy
Because it gives me so much joy.
I think I left it under a chair,
But when I look it isn’t there;
Under tables and under hats,
But all I find are baseball bats!
Your Furend
