I woke up this morning
in my warm comfy bed.
No one was there but my cat.
She sat on her perch unseen
looking at me
feeling like a queen.
Now this is a normal occurrence in my house,
I only wish she was as quite as a mouse;
cause some mornings she’s cranky and whining
while others she’s simply reclining.
She sleeps most of the day and wakes up to play
or eat treading around my bare feet.
I have to watch out
or her tail, I have no doubt,
will be caught making her shout.
I love my orange stripe tabby.
She jumps,
runs,
and bites for fun
then curls up by me for a nap.
