Oh, little grey cat,
come sit on my lap.
and snuggle like
my old departed
feline used to do.
Too independent
as cats tend to be,
maybe in time you
will perch on my lap
and purr contentedly.
Truth be told, I fully
understand your
affection shown is
way more about your
needs than mine.
The rest of the time
you could not care less.
Cats are the ultimate
animal hedonist.
Don't tell him, but
I actually admire his
independent ways and
the regal like dignity
that comes along with it.
