Poems

Diego,
Tell me your secret,
How you make her smile even when you sleep,
So effortless you are,
In bringing her happiness.

Diego,
Show me how,
You gained her affection,
So long before I even knew her or you,
Your black and white fur,
Stole her delighted eyes.

Diego,
Aren't we the same?
All we want is her company and kind words,
To see her every day,
To know that she cares.

Diego,
It's not fair is it?
You have a natural advantage I can't compete with,
You're a cat,
An extremely cute cat.

I mean,
How am I supposed to beat that?
