Like this poem with a good picture of the cat. Good rhyming, and word flow as you talk about your day. Sounds like a lazy day which we all need now and then to get caught up on our rest.

It is a charming, rainy day poem, Jeni. Do nothing on a day like that and feel no guilt at all. The stanzas are so pleasant to read. Makes us realise that we need to take care of ourselves and take it easy from time to time. Rainy days are perfect for that.

I loved your poem. I can understand those feelings on rainy days. (though at the moment we are sweltering in 35 degs. heat. So I still don't feel like doing anything.
Best of luck.

    Dear Marybell1, sometimes I just don't feel like doing anything either, I either push myself or just go with the feeling!
    Thanks for your kind review.

Very nicely done, Luna. My only possible tid-bit is, "my windows looks rain streaked." Technically speaking "looks" is the plural of "look." Ad in, "the doctors gave the x-ray quite a few looks." Either "window" or "looks" should be singular - my window looks - or - my windows look...

    Dear Thal, thank you for the kind review and for correcting my grammar. As soon as I get a chance I will go in and correct the grammar in the poem. Correct grammar is very important to me and either that was a typo or it slipped by. You're great!

    Best,

Your poem does what all good poetry should do, and that is open the imagination. Very well composed and the rhyme structure flows very well. I hope Mikey appreciates this poem.

There is a feeling of freedom in your words. It is great to have a rainy day and do nothing or do something fun. I like the line about feeling no guilt, something we all need from time to time. The pic of the cat is perfect for the poem.

I was attracted to this because of my own cat. She is a tabby, unlike the one here, yet, the sentiments you give, reminds much of her, especially with the personalization.
Lovely.
Have a great day, author.

    Dear RG,

    I love cats but am seriously allergic to them. However, at one time I had five! Thanks for the kind review and support.
    You have a great day, also.

    Best,

That is goood, Jeni. I love those 'pajama days' as I call them. I also am into ...artistic endeavors, we'll call them...

The only suggestion I could make is to remove the 's' from either 'windows' or 'looks' in line 4, making it 'window looks' or 'windows look'.

That cat is precious, love your presentation. Blessings... Christy

Let's raise a glass together and enjoy the rain on the window and do nothing. It has been awhile since I allowed myself that pleasure. I just have to find a good book and then I will do exactly as your poem says.
