ysabetwordsmithThis is the second freebie for the Poetry Fishbowl. It was inspired by an anonymous prompt in this thread over on ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)

"Hunting for Hidden Gold"
The sleeping cat curls up
beside the fireplace.
His soft purr fills the air
with a low, rhythmic drone.
Now and then, a paw twitches.
In his dreams, he is chasing
after goldfinches and deermice.
He is death wrapped in shadow,
hunting for hidden gold.

>> Now I need to check out some more.<<
Let's see, I posted 4 poems yesterday -- 2 freebies (because we had a new prompter) and 2 of the $5 poems got sponsored. Plus of course, the previous stuff. The Holiday Poetry Sale page has links going up as I post the megaton of poems sponsored last month. For series or project organization, see the Serial Poetry page, Shared World page, and their subpages.
Everything already sponsored, and any fanwork, is free for everyone to read. Available works go up with a thumbnail description and a price for anyone interested in sponsoring them -- it doesn't have to be by the prompter. January's theme is always Short Forms so there's a ton of cheap stuff listed on yesterday's fishbowl page.
