'Sneaky''

he's watching your every move
awaiting for you to fail
once he sees your back is turned
he'll pounce over the rail

he's eyeing your every step
snickering upon its lips
once he sees he has a chance
he'll break out and zip

low and behold the watcher
no one knows from whence he came
once he thinks you surely failed
he'll swear to do it again

cowering in the corners
awaiting for you to subside
once he thinks you are gone
he will no longer hide

he's watching your every move
awaiting as to attack
dang cat isn't so smart
Master is coming back
how can you think that
with what do you feel
people have feelings
and they are real

where's your compassion
is it so far gone
that love is lost
that there is none

how can you feel that
what happened to you
is from the heart
thus we speak and do

but you are heartless
that I have no doubt
where we speak from within
you speak without

how can you think that
with what do you feel
people have feelings
and they are real

@ 8:40 a.m.
A voice out in the midst
calling out to me
to listen with the heart
and let yourself be free

I look around to see
who would call my name
yet I see no one
but the words were the same

Listen with your heart
only then speak again
still I saw no one
as soft words seemed to reign

The voice of a friend
speaking gently to me
now feeling so safe
I felt I could fly free

The gift of patience
sent to me with such love
thus from an angel
sweet presence from above
oh my
did you see it?
Grandpa kissed Grandma
and she liked it!
I don't believe it!
but why?
eeewwwwww
kissing!!

oh my
did you see?
Daddy kissed Mommy
and she liked it!
but why?
ughhhhh
kissing!!

oh my
I think I..
am going to be sick
Why, Gramps?
Why, Daddy?
kissing!!

Then Mommy told me
nothing's wrong with it
just a gentle kiss
women like that

Then Grandma spoke up
nothing's wrong with it
just a simple kiss
things women like

Mommy? Grandma?
Daddy? Grandpa?
Will I like it
when I grow up?

After they all nodded
I just said
''Not me!
I'll stay a kid forever!''
