Description

You Know How a Cat Will Bring a mouse it has caught and lay it at your feet so each morning I bring you a poem that I've written when I woke up in the night as my tribute to your beauty cats endlessly captivate and hypnotise, frustrate and delight. To poets, in particular, these enigmatic creatures are the most delightful and beguiling of muses, as they purr, prowl, hunt, play, meow, and nap, often oblivious to their so-called masters. Cat Poems offers a litter of odes to our beloved felines by some of the greatest poets of all time.

Author Biography

Beloved poets spanning a great range of eras and styles, all writing in praise of the cat. Including poems from Charles Baudelaire, Elizabeth Bishop, Stevie Smith, Ezra Pound, William Carlos Williams, Amy Lowell, Rainer Maria Rilke and W. B. Yeats, there will be something for every taste - so long as you love cats.
