Morning

In the early morn
When I awaken
I 'm very tired
From lack of sleeping
My cat wakes me

At different hours
In the early morn
She would lick my hand
Or she would chirp softly
If that did not work 

Sparkles would take a walk
Onto my pillow
Then she would lick me
Or lick me then chirp
Until I awake

As Victor notes below, your cat is quite the alarm clock --- even without the 'alarm,' she wakes you!

Your alarm clock is fabulous. I don't need one really. At 5 am I'm awake. Wish I could sleep more.
