"It's either a raccoon or a cat." my husband said when we stepped out of our car. The first part of that statement had me recalling a time years ago when a plump raccoon crawled out through the sewer grate. I never forgot that night and hoped that this March night would not turn out to haunt me. I walked as fast as I could to the front door and hastily moved inside the house.
Flashback to a few weeks ago during one of the overnight snowstorms-my husband was concerned about the neighborhood feral cats. "What will become of them?" This lingering question lasted a few days later when he spotted the cats calmly sitting on our driveway. They looked so relaxed that I quietly took out my iPhone in an attempt to photograph them. Luckily, I took a couple of shots before the black cat darted off. From an old photo and this new one, I blended them together as a backdrop for a poem.
Did you find the hidden picture inside the main photo?
Check the snowflake.
So was the black cat the figure in the dark my husband saw or was it a raccoon?
