Noll's Lament

It was a beautiful sunny day yesterday. 
Even the day's name - Sunday - spoke to the day's perfection. 
The air infused with the scent of wild phlox and lily of the valley.
A robin egg blue sky overhead. 
Yellow birdies hanging upside down, feeding on the thistle sock.
The leaves of my purple plum tree strumming the breeze. 
And the green, green grass in front of my window,
layed out like a welcoming mat.

So, why was I on the inside looking out?


P.S., I did get to go outside shortly after
my theatrical performance =^..^=

We're pleased to hear you got out eventually - it's not as though you were asking for something that involved anything difficult apart from opening the door for you!! We hope you got lots of lovely sunshine on your furs.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx

Aha, sometimes it pays to be a "drama queen." LOL.

Creating a performance does get the humans to do your bidding. When I want something like extra treats I look at Mom to get her to feel guilty and I get a lot of treats.

Dear Noll,
