Found a Cat, Lucky Me!

Found a Cat, Lucky Me!

     David Angel

Someone’s kitty got away
I’m hoping that he was a stray
The reason is, I’m keeping him
Decided I would call him Jim

Hope nobody misses him
Life without our feline bosses
Much less joy and full of losses
Cats add to the mystery

When little Jimmy jumps and plays 
I write about his special ways
Sometimes comes and sometimes goes 
Where he hides, nobody knows

Young James always reappears
“Dinner gong, haul ass, I’m here!
Would like pâté tonight my dear
On a bagel with a smear

People food, good forcemeat
No Fancy Feast, no horse meat
Prepare for me a taste of Heaven
Set my plate out by eleven!'

     Anything else I can do?
     Live to make you purr
     Shall I stroke your fur?
     Wake you when you stir?

Yeah, wipe that Cheshire grin away
Changed my mind, lobster today
Draw some butter, watch the clock
Tails must be South African rock
