The Wise Little Cat

Aww, dear kitty cat, my darling friend,
Thank you for making me realise,
That it’s important to stop a bit,
And smell the flowers nice.

Hoomans are dumb, so very, very dense,
They tend to forget the important stuff,
But as long as we’ve got you around,
I think that should be reminder enough!

So, let’s prance and play and dance a while
Climb the roof, get stuck in trees.
Curl up in the sun, catch a snooze,
Shrug off our cares, just live free!

Let’s unroll, uncoil, unwind ourselves
Purr luxuriously and stretch away.
And even if it is for the tiniest bit,
Let’s keep our cares and troubles at bay.

In a world that demands so much from us
Tossing us around like tumbleweed
Thank you, dear fellow, for reminding us,
To let go of everything and just … be.
