For I am a Cat
Guided by the moon
I have 9 lives, Imagine that!
I’ve used up 8
Way to soon
But I keep the faith
reminded by my Runes
the 1st to remind me
of all I have went through
and know I am Free
The second for Strength
to Stay positive
On Goals.
To keep it all the way
to my soul.
The third is for Joy
To find it while I May
Don’t live for tomorrow
When I have Today.
I have My eye
to remember to see
all the beauty in this world
That is to help guide me.
To remember to see
beyond the face
and know others are hurting
in a different place.
And last I have my Pheonix
Cuz I’ve risen from the dead.
It kick starts the blues
right out of my Head.
So when I’m down
and lonely
I look to my guides.
And remember I am Lucky
To even Be alive.

I love how you give each of a cat’s lives specific meaning. I also lover your Eye of Horus tattoo. I have his lunar eye on my right arm. Needed to keep something ancient with me after a trip to Egypt.
When a cat goes walking during the day,
Proud and arrogant with tail that sways,
“I’ve been in the dark with everything strange,
Survived the wolves over a mountain range,
Crossed the river on the back of a croc,
Escaped a cage when I jimmyed a lock,
Worried for days I had used all nine lives,
Eluded Mr. Tom who had nine cat wives,
I finally found a home that serves a seafood platter,
I count my blessings for the past doesn’t matter.
Makes purrrrfully good sense, doesn’t it?

I’m glad you are a cat and you have now, what “normal” folks have…one life to live. May you live it well a your words suggest. The phoenix will take you beyond and lift you up..love that image.
very apt one..
you make me believe everything you write s real.
bless you.
That’s because it is.
Everything from being adopted twice, to dying 8 times. Being stuck in bed half the time, and learning how to walk again.
even the abuse all of it.
Most can’t even imagine going through all that, but Like I said, I’m a cat.
Or a willow tree in a storm, I might bend all the way down to the ground and a few limbs might be broken, but I still stand.
and so will others.

Lucky and greatful to be alive. 🙂 Good thinking!
I love the thought ‘guided by the moon’ with a power like that, you could live forever!
Good thinking, wise words.
As we all are lucky to be alive.
Great post and words
