From my eyes

- A feline perspective

A yawn and a stretch

And my day begins a new

A purr, a whine, a scratch and a mewl

Why do you not come when I call?

I’m hungry and playful, lonely and sad

You’re locked away in your room

Sleeping without me to warm your side

And play with your hand when it twitches & slips by your side

Aha! You’re awake

I play and I mewl,

I run and I roll.

Just what I needed – a rub and a bowl of food!

Now time for my nap

As my morning has worn me out

I run to my pillow to snuggle in

But to my distress I find it mussed

What is this?

The pillow is straightened,

My comfy fur fuzzes are gone

And it smells like spring meadow, not like a home

Once again to my work, I must fluff and I must muss

To get my pillow just right

Now I rub and I roll to get my fur in the just the good spots

Thank goodness I only must do this once a week

Mmmm…time for a nap

Perhaps when I wake

You’ll be there before me

To play and to love, as an owner should be
