Another poem from Aidan Coleman, whom I thank again for his permission to post this.

CAT IN EMPTY AVIARY
Today
is a day for weather:
sun-blue
with a scattering of popcorn.
Today
I’ll let the phone
ring
and only answer the kettle,
learn
idleness and bliss
from next-door’s lounging
cat
who dares a judgment
to come:
a prisoner
of nothing but sun.
