This is a cute story as told by BooBoo. (I had a dog called Bimbo when I was around 3 yo.)

This black cat has a ghoulish look, and treats Halloween guests in impishly. Nevertheless, Booboo is effective in scaring off witches and the like.

With Booboo around, we can get back to other activities!

Cheers,
DW

Really funny and clever. I love the cat- he looks so miffed at hs haircut!

Nice phrasing and rhymes in your poem, it flows along well.
I think this would appeal to children as well.

This poem made me laugh and grin like an evil pumpkin. That poor kitty!! The expression on its face is so typical of any cat. I can just imagine my cats running around chasing skeletons on Halloween. I always wondered what they were howling at in the middle of the night.

That is so cute! I love it, and his/her eyes is the color of a pumpkin very nice. And that is so true it seems like everyone is frighten of a black cat it's crazy, but I can see the point of the hair cut. Very funny I really enjoyed it thanks for sharing!

This is cute, I don't usually read Halloween poems, but this caught my eye, and I'm glad I went into it 'cause it is sooooooooooooooooooo cute........and it flows well. Would you consider adding punctuation?

scroll down

my lovely self is
defiled by this awful
haircut
so here I sit on Halloween
not my holiday
I was born on Christmas
a time of singing
not a time for screaming--------I love the above part of your stanza............so cute

this funky night full
of sweets and ghouls
makes me want to go
postal
so off I scamper
chasing the little witches
as they fly into the
night sky
away from the hairless
feline

the werewolf takes one
look at me
and hides behind Duchess
the family poodle
he quakes with fear
at my new do
I stick my tongue out
he wimpers and howls----spell check says wimpers should be WHIMPERS
for his mother

the skeletons dance out
of the graveyard
but seeing a hairless
kitty
they fall onto each other
creating a pile of bones---------so cute

I am beside myself
looking this way
I growl and hiss at
the Halloween characters
they run in fear

my mistress calls me
BooBoo! Stop picking on
the ghosts and ghouls!
But I am too busy chasing
a jack-o-lantern around our yard

finally, calm and collected
I rub against my favorite
scratching post
covered in catnip
over I collapse---perhaps omit OVER
leaving Halloween to go
on in peace
as the skeletons collect themselves
and run into the night.---GOOD JOB

LOL Wow. This was very entertaining to read. If I didn't know better, I'd say that the poem was written AFTER finding the picture. Either way, one definitely compliments the other.

Nice job.

    I wanted to write a Halloween poem about an unusual cat and went searching for a pic. The shaved Persian was perfect. Thanks for a great review. Elaine
