Tit tat little cat
chasing and tumbling across the floor.
Jumping bumping catching ball
then losing it under the door in the hall.
Crouching reaching stretching as far as you can
but it’s still out of reach of your tiny little hand.
Jump up twirl round stretch and lay down
curl and purr as I stroke your soft fur.
Thank you God for this little kitty
so soft and funny and so pretty.
When in my lap it purrs and plays
I smile and get away from the troubles of the day.
His cute little face adoring my embrace
slows me down from life’s lightning pace.
There is so much in life to love
that God sends in small packages wrapped in a hug.

Strolling thro' the zoo today, gazing at the various creatures,
I marveled at their shapes, colors and other distinctive features.
Some were graceful and sweet, others were cute and cuddly;
Others were grumpy and clumsy - some were downright ugly!
The ungainly giraffe, for instance, altho' much maligned,
Is one of the most graceful beasts that God designed.
But I saw no glamour in Godzilla the nine-hundred pound gorilla,
Scowling and holding the hand of his homely mate, Drusilla!
What splendid lions, tigers and other cats pacing to and fro!
And is there a more elegant animal than a fleet-footed doe?
The camels, elephants, kangaroos and yaks look mighty weird.
The buffalo isn't all that handsome with its shaggy beard!
Tho' 'tis risky with sneaky snakes, 'gators and crocs to coexist,
Even they are beautiful, according to the adoring herpetologist!
I suppose only its mother could love the lumbering rhinoceros.
For what purpose did God create the sinister hippopotamus?
Some seem to have been desisgned by an ad hoc senatorial committee,
And, alas, the results did not turn out to be all that pretty!
But beauty is in the eye of the beholder to savor and enthrall;
For each to treasure all of God's creatures, be they great or small!
