What Cats Taught Me
Cats taught me how to be myself, to like myself, to play and roll.
As kittens they showed me what being annoying looks like.
They showed me how great it is to show myself, to live my soul.
Enthusiasm dancing and hopping, they were more fun than my bike.
They taught me that they will pout and hiss and stick up their nose.
If you make them mad, they will most certainly wet on your shoe.
Cats do not like snake-like things especially not the garden hose.
But they also taught me that cuddling will help if you are any way blue.
Cats taught me to be your own person, to be your own happy clown.
Taught me it is great to roll your tummy up and take a nap in the sun.
Joyful and fun, cats are happy to use you as a nest, patting you down.
They taught me that living life is all important, the goal is to have fun.
