Kisses of Sandpaper

Softly the pitter patter 
Peaceful melody of purrs,
filling your soul with laughter  
furry four legged treasures;

meowing their words of love
blinking 'Hello'  with their eyes,
punching  your heart like a glove 
staring at you from up high;

pouncing softly to your lap
a joy to watch each caper,
right before taking a nap
sweet kisses of sandpaper.

Nothing like a little kitty love! This was very, very charming! Sandpaper tongues, yet they're full of love. =D Ironic, isn't it?
