GOD'S LITTLE ANGEL

Hark, all persons, lend an ear
I've something I must make real clear.
Why do you think that cats are here?
But to soothe and calm us, end our fear.

It's said that God sits on his throne,
At his feet a cat is sleeping prone.
Then how can you ever feel alone
Knowing God's angel is in your home.

LULLABY

Sometimes you need real courage
Just to make it through the day.
Sometimes you feel so lonely
Like the world has gone away.
Sometimes you cry for nothing
You're sad and don't know why.
That's when you need your friend to sing
His sweet, purr lullaby.
You stroke his fur so softly
While he stares into your eyes.
He knows the secrets of your soul
He lifts your world's disguise.
He sees you for who you are
Like no one ever could.
You know there's bad inside you but
He only see the good.
Now there's peace within you
All the hurt has gone away.
Thanks to the magic spell he wove
Of love, pure love today.

YOUR SPECIAL ANGEL

Death is beautiful...
At least it is for me.
But I see you crying for me and
I want to touch your face with my soft paw
And tell you that I am still with you.
You just can't see me now;
Or feel my touch
Or hear my purr.
I can run and jump and play
just like I did as a kitten
Before my body was in pain
Hurting from the ravages of time.
How good it feels to be in this new world
Where there is no disease, no cruelty, no hurt.
But my heart aches for you.
I long to tell gou that I am free;
I long for your caress.
One day we will be together again
United for all eternity.
Until then, talk to me with your soul
I will always be with you
As your own special angel.

What Is A Cat?
 

Gentle eyes
that see so much,
paws that have
the quiet touch.

Purrs to signal
"all is well"
and show more love
than words can tell.

Graceful movements
touched with pride,
a calming presence
by our side.

A friendship
that will last and grow,
small wonder
why we love them so.

Cat Kisses 

Sandpaper kisses
on a cheek or a chin
that is the way
for a day to begin

Sandpaper kisses
a cuddle and a purr
I have an alarm clock
that's covered in fur!

Cats Sleep Anywhere 

Cats sleep anywhere, any table, any chair.
Top of piano, window-ledge, in the middle, on the edge.
Open draw, empty shoe, anybody's lap will do.
Fitted in a cardboard box, in the cupboard with your frocks.
Anywhere! They don't care! Cats sleep anywhere.

I'm Only A Cat 

I'm only a cat,
and I stay in my place...
Up there on your chair,
on your bed or your face!

I'm only a cat,
and I don't finick much...
I'm happy with cream
and anchovies and such!

I'm only a cat,
and we'll get along fine...
As long as you know
I'm not yours... you're all mine!
