Deception

by carolynholm

Cher Madame,
Madame is not fair.
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
Because I get annoyed with you for keeping us awake with your early morning singing?
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
Oui, c’est ça, and also The Best Cat Ever title.
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
What about it? You love to be called that! 
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
Yesterday you said Winston was The Best Cat Ever.
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
Not this again. 
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
C’est important. Winston? The Best Cat Ever? We all know this is a lie, Madame. Ouf. And on many occasions Madame even pronounced Mia The Best Cat Ever.
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
She was.
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
She was insufferable. But she is gone now. And Madame calls this petit cat The Best Cat Ever.
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
I do from time to time. You’re a wonderful cat on occasion.
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
Madame is calling ALL the cats The Best Cat Ever.
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
I’m lucky to live with so many outstanding cats!
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
That’s not all. You call Poppy The Best Girl Ever.
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
I do.
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
Does your daughter know this? 
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
Not if I don’t tell her.
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
And do you have a Best Boy Ever? A Best Dog Ever?
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
I might have several.
Love, Carolyn

Cher Madame,
How does Madame sleep at night with all this deception?
Regards, M. Le Poufin

Dear Puffin,
It’s not deception! Each was the Best at the very moment that I said it!
Love, Carolyn
