- Ode To Lucas My Cat -

  A cat is a cat, you might say.
  But my orange cat Lucas, is undoubtedly unique.
  His fur has black stripes,
  he looks as a little tiger.

  A lively and curious cat
  with a special personality.
  Homemade sushi, is his favorite meal.
  Lucas, enjoys life and expresses a lot of joy.
  Stretches and rolls around on my lap
  ... I scratch his belly,
  it's clear that he's pleased.

  Lucas rightly bears his name, "bringer of light".
