Margy Ohring
Cat lovers have been delighted with the way Margy's sonnets get inside the feline mind and with the pictures she draws of the various antics of our four-footed friends. Comments include:
"How
do you get into their heads like that?!!! Amazing!"
—Sue Benjamin
"That
is what I love about your poems...I can 'see' them..."
—Noreen Folzman
"I
so appreciate your gift of capturing a cat's purrsonality."
—Sue Glashofer
"This
had me really chuckling! I can see him doing this."
—Linda Gillian
"I got my book of sonnets yesterday, and I'm not exaggerating when I say it's now my most prized possession! I absolutely love it. Thank you, thank you!!! I read a few of the sonnets out loud to my cats. They pretended not to be impressed, but I could tell they were really smiling because they all listened intently, twitching their tails and blinking slowly to show their approval! Thanks so much!" — Tammy Wallsch
