So here I sit, looking at my cat, <br />if you'ld never met, wouldn't think she's all that, <br />but if you got to know her personally, <br />it all becomes pretty plain to see. <br /> <br />Is she a human trapped in a cats body, <br />or the other way round, if you see, if you see, <br />she controls with her mind I'm sure of that, <br />on top of the food chain, comfortably sat. <br /> <br />I know when she's hungry, I know when she's cold, <br />when she wants to go out, or a ball to be rolled, <br />she gives me her love, but conditionally, <br />for food, love and warmth, and a stroke or three. <br /> <br />She knows when I'm up, she knows when I'm down, <br />when she puts on the cuteness, it's immposible to frown, <br />better than prozac, booze or a drug, <br />the sound of her curled up, purring and snug. <br /> <br />And even at night, when she lets out a snore, <br />it's so quiet and sweet, you smile once more, <br />she's someone to talk to, who won't answer back, <br />she'll show you the meaning of a good craic. <br /> <br />Just sunlight, sustenance, a warm comfy bed, <br />someone to protect her, scritch on her head, <br />throw love in too, and what have you got? <br />all that we need, admit it, thats the lot! <br /> <br />(Goggs '05)<br /><br />Nomad Goggs<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ode-to-fatboy/
