“Do I dare to eat a peach?”

Silver considers The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock.

“Shall I part my hair behind? Do I dare to eat a peach?”

Ninety-nine point eight percent last night and this morning. The persistence of the August Blue Moon.

    • Laurie and I were talking about the mermaids. The peach made sense to Silver. When it comes to mermaids he hasn’t a clue. We don’t have them out here. Thanks, Cindy.

  1. Silver is a handsome kitty, and like Spunk, contemplates many things. He looks very content there.

    Your skies are as beautiful as always, no matter what the time of day. Dawn looks like it is exploding clouds from the horizon.

  2. Clearly I’m out of my element. Parting my hair from behind, only if there is enough. Eating a peach, best left to professionals as are wearing white pants after Labor Day.

  3. Nice sky, and kitty photos. Especially the cloud photo with streaks of shadows. Almost looks like a painted ceiling.

  4. Tim, this is a great post! I definitely think you should eat the peach – it comes from my tree, right? Would my tree not supply juicy fruit? This blue moon is so very persistant! And I love that last shot.

    • Yes, the peach is from your peach tree. I have been eating peaches off of it. Silver, like Prufrock, is trying to decide whether or not to eat the peach. Your tree produces big, tasty, juicy peaches. Thanks, Dale.

        • From T.S. Elliot’s “The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock” often simply called “Prufrock”. Silver is pondering the line from the poem “Do I dare to eat a peach?”

            • It’s a great and famous poem. Silver is only considering the one question about the peach from the poem, given all the peaches filling boxes he thinks should be reserved for cats. With a preponderance of peaches the poor pussy becomes predisposed to Prufrock.
