A Little Animals View
I was dreaming of a hunting quest,
feral, wild and untamed in a land strange;
then, outside my fluffy fur there was a change,
the bright sun was shining into our nest.
Yawning wide and on the bed my claws- pressed,
I am soft dark grey and a pet of one;
I like to prowl mice that in the house run.
Oh, on my mother's lips a kiss I pressed!
Well, I think this is my mother, anyway,
I see her eyes flutter and she does stir;
MEOW! Is she going to sleep all day?
So into her right ear I loudly purr,
I am forced to stand on her chest and plea;
Oh! Do get up and make our tea!
Then, she hugs me close to her heart with love,
and she calls me her little turtle dove!
Mother is walking towards the kitchen,
I zoom past her sliding on the wood floor;
yes, ready to do my part- to pitch in,
I know mother what dwells behind that door.
That's right, make the tea and in my bowl pour,
yes, in my plate my yummy food place;
and when I am all full we can play chase . . .
So sorry, didn't mean to break your vase!
