My Cats

Ears twitching After a long retiring sleep Their eyes on tender hook for one moment they are wild The next moment tender with a loving look When illness falls my way Their heart rallies to my side Like medication on tap They stay with me Long into the night A reassuring paw on my lap Otherwise like little kids Whose loyalty goes so far But want to get out and play My beautiful Coco and Kiki There for me through the tough times But always my secure night and day

You know, I find the cats I've 'owned' have been quite loyal too. ~ Me-ow
