The Cat

The lady sleeps 
     Her cat is sleeping
      Both in deep slumber
      In the early morn
      She feels a nudge
       Eyes open- her cat
       stares at her
       Then chirps softly
       The lady speaks to her cat
      " It's too early to eat"
        Time passes then again

        The cat nudges her 
         To wake up from sleep
         She looks at the clock
          It is two in the morn
          She rolls over dreams
          Only to awake
          At six in the morn
           Now she feels tired
           From lack of sleep
