From a Cat's Perspective


On my last day on earth
I paddled at and lapped clean water
I turned up my nose at freshly opened cans of Friskies
I peed in the vicinity of my litter box
I slept in a soft fleecy bed
I sang the song of my people
I spent time with my best friends
I gazed out my favorite window
I sat in the glorious sunshine
I sniffed the fresh breeze
I rambled through the greenery
I dawdled through a shallow puddle
I inspected the garage for trespassing rodents
And I almost caught the red dot
When my day came to a close
I went to sleep knowing that I was loved
