Anger, depression, misery and cruelty,

We’ve had all we can take of that.

Wouldn’t life be much more pleasant,

If everyone behaved like a cat?

Contended grin fills my face,

Perhaps I am just smitten.

But nothing makes me feel at home,

Like sittin’ with my kitten!

Sammy is a fearsome warrior,

Leaps more quickly than you can take a breath.

Her coloring lets her hide in the shadows,

With her furry mandibles of death.

There was going to be a poem,

Full of style and wit and grace.

However I was keyboard-blocked,

By this kitten’s sleepy face!

The winter wind screams through the trees,

While the icy rain comes pelting down.

Sammy is fast asleep with bed and blanket,

I’m in the car, driving to work downtown…

Sammy and Daddy,

Lying on the bed

They’d be eating a sandwich,

But they haven’t any bread.

This world is harsh and unforgiving,

Reach out a hand to help and it is bitten.

One of my better ways to deal with life,

Is to snuggle with my kitten.

Sammy in the tree, presents are purchased,

Good Lord, I have never been broker.

Now I have to watch Uncle Blogsy,

‘Cause he’s a serial Christmas present poker…

Thanksgiving dinner was served at six,

Sammy moved in with the speed of a cheetah.

Alas, poor kitten, your meal was bird-less.

For we served pepperoni pizza!

You are a guest in my grandest castle,

With paintings, statues, golden fixtures.

And yet you break my single rule,

I thought I said, “No Pictures!”
