Sweet Meows

I’d rather share my bed with my cat.
He never gets needy 
or tries to steal the covers;
He’ll hum for me purr for me,
won’t talk when I’m exhausted.

I’d rather share my bed with my cat.
He is unconditional
not overemotional;
He’ll sit and chill next to me,
content with my company.

He’s full of sweet meows…

I’d rather share my bed with my cat.
He’ll get me through the work day
in his corner of the room;
He deserves the finer things
because he doesn’t want much.

I’d rather share my bed with my cat.
He’ll be there when it’s raining
and when the sunshine creeps back;
He has no planned agenda
because I am all he needs.

I’d rather share my bed with my cat,
he’s full of sweet meows.
