Cat In The House
Oh to be a house cat
snug and smug inside
All the world beyond the glass
hers, to be surmised
Safe inside among her pride
of humans whom she rules
the house cat purrs and preens
and all is seen
through eyes of emerald jewels
Give her food, give her a bed
fresh water every day
A clean box of sand to
follow nature's way
A furry mouse, a piece of string
and perhaps a little ball
Just as well, a paper bag
to scoot across the hall
But mostly the house cat
seeks from you
the love and admiration,
that is its due
