My Cat
My Cat
Intense elation fills my every fiber
as I sense delight arising from within her
while she gently discerns and replaces my pain
that instantly flees in her ardent embrace.
Who is this that has chosen me to be her
solitary lover? What demands arise from a dancing
heart that fixes her gaze upon my face
and perceives me as her endless elect?
Perhaps she is but a spirit floating through eternity
or even the whisper of God gently brushing my face.
She dances ethereally, unencumbered by concern
for life itself.
Even if I should be lost in infinity
she would detect me, and there attend to the
indigence she perceived without her
presence - - - this devotee, this shadowy soul.
