My Precious Feline

Once you beget, a four-legged friend into your life spirit
You begin an odyssey about yourself, starting-- within a minute
And greatest of all-- a love 'n caring commit

You will come away, changed forever all
For one soul cannot touch another soul
Without leaving its mark whole

A journey that will bring you more love 
And devotion than you have ever known of
It will also test your strength 'n courage enuff

It is the most precious gift embrace 
Any living soul can grace
You will not find it, often, among the human race

The journey will teach you many things, I bet 
About life, and to be a better person-- yet
Pay attention and learn well from your pet

When the journey is done 'n end
The individual your pet dependably knew who to depend 
The one they are proud to call-- ''My Beloved Friend'''
