things my kitty-cat does

these are things my kitty-cat does,
to tell me that she loves me.
she curls up in my lap,
and takes a nap,
and rolls on her back while i pet her.
she sleeps on my chest,
because it's the best,
but mostly because i let her.
these are things my kitty-cat does,
to tell me that she loves me.

these are things my kitty-cat does,
to tell me that she loves me.
she nuzzles my chin,
which gives me a grin,
and tickles my nose with her tail.
she snuggles and purrs
to tell me I'm hers
and she helps me read my mail.
these are things my kitty-cat does,
to tell me that she loves me.

these are things my kitty-cat does
to tell me that she loves me
she brings me the mouse
that she found in the house
although it only made of cloth
she meows and sings
and plays with my strings
and keeps my closet free of moths
these are things my kitty-cat does
to tell me that she loves me.

    This piece also works really well as a piece that you can tell a small child, very loving and well worded.

    Good write.

    My favorite section. I don't have a cat, I'm not a cat fanatic, and yet I love this piece. Simple, pure, sweet, touching, geez. You've got it all.

    hey this is really really cute. i love kitties! the ONLY thing that i didnt like was was the last two lines of each stanza... i understand you had an effect you were going for but it didnt seem to flow to me. but regardless, good job.

    Perfect and cute and cuddly. Sounds like my new kitten. Tho she wants kisses from me. So I have to kiss her to get her to stop shoving her nose in my face. Cats are so cool. I sure missed having one for so long. This was wonderful and made me smile. Hugs and bites, Lady Raven

    This is just too cute, I too love cats and animals in general though I find it very difficult to write about them, you seem to have it well underhand, for the both of us I suppose! well done and nice write
