When Again We Meet

Every hour of every day As I sit quietly in my chair She comes to have a little pet Just to reassure I'm still care. She first raises her tiny voice Then she begins to circle ‘round Exactly three times no less no more Then to my lap where she is bound. Holding her gently, safe in my arms Words of love I do murmur sweet She purrs her thanks, then jumps down Until the next hour when again we meet.
