Through the Eyes of a Cat

The cat surveys his realm
With peering eyes
Outside the window
He can see for miles
Green hills and valleys,
Flowers and trees--

 

The cat surveys his realm
With feline ease
And the alacrity
To pounce, run and play--

 

The cat surveys his realm
Throughout the day,
While dreaming of some
Feline paradise.

 

He paints myriad pictures
With his eyes
Of birds and dogs,
Lakes, frogs and butterflies,
And gangs of kittens
Meowing for food.

 

The cat surveys his realm
And thinks it's good--
It's good to be a cat,
To be in charge.
