CAT POET'S CORNER

A Kitty Prayer

Now I lay me down to sleep,
The king-size bed is soft and deep.
I sleep right in the center groove,
My human cannot hardly move!

I've trapped her legs, she's tucked in tight
And here is where I pass the night.
No one disturbs me or dares intrude
Till morning comes and "I want food!"

I sneak up slowly to begin
my nibbles on my human's chin.
She wakes up quickly, I have sharp teeth
And my claws I will unsheathe

For the morning's here
and it's time to play
always seem to get my way.
So thank you Lord for giving me
This human person that I see.
The one who hugs me and holds me tight
And sacrifices her bed at night!
