A BALLAD FOR KITTY

My kitty is as white as snow
   so soft and silky, too
Were he one day to up and go
   I don't know what I'd do

For he is such a charming chap
   So peaceful, calm, and chill
And when he sits upon my lap
   I'm stuck there, sitting still

He lays about with no complaint
   except at dinner time
And then he cries with no restraint
   my tardiness, a crime!

He seems as sluggish as a louse
   but rodents best beware
For setting foot within our house,
   no mouse would ever dare!

And when it's time to go to bed
   a funny thing occurs
he curls up beside my head
   and there he softly purrs

The heavens lost a lovely soul
   when this cat came to be
But in my heart there was a hole
   that he fit perfectly

I must admit, this kitty rocks
   I love that boy to bits
My heart is just a little box
   and if he fits, he sits
