A writing prompt from an internet meme posted by a friend.
I wonder what my cat named me?
Did she perhaps think me elegant?
Perhaps I'm Veronica or Eloise, Catherine, or Adeline?
Or perhaps she noted my running gear with a sniff
and dubbed me Pepper or Karlie or Pegg.
Perhaps instead she took into account my colors and markings.
Did they prompt a Sable or Hazel or Rose?
I wonder what my cat named me?
It would be nice to have had consideration
for the better parts of my personality.
Maybe Joy or Sunny or Truly.
I wonder what my cat named me?
Did she perhaps have a sense of humor
and went with my opposite?
Perhaps I'm Shark or Caterpillar or Crow!
I wonder what my cat named me?
So many wonderful directions
a name can take of hopeful or silly or fun.
Perhaps, instead, my name is a peek into her hobbies,
somehow ball related or the hunt;
I might even be named Tuna or Chicken.
I wonder what my cat named me?
Perhaps I'll never know.
One thing is for sure, though...
I absolutely know my summoning HOWL!
"You There! Human! Feed me!
NOW!"
