To All The Divas Of The Canteen
A Story Told In Pictures
When I was a Kitten, I was afraid of everything
Being the smallest thing in every room may be considered "Darling"
When tables and chairs tower over you, it's sometimes hard to cope
Though when Curiosity meets Innocence, there's always a flicker of hope!
Late at night when My Pretty One was asleep
I learned what happens when a Kitten stretches, rears up and leaps
Oh, mistakes were made as I'd fall and get up off the floor
But I had a goal to conquer and failing made me want it more!
There were moments when My Pretty One was sure I was anchored to the ground
Then I would fly up upon an empty chair in a sure and fluid bound
Then stretch and peek over the Table Top to smile and see
The shocked surprise of My Pretty One's face as she'd gasp and smile at me!
That seems so very long ago for this Brave and Fearless Cat
I've grown stronger, taller and wiser and very little is fat
The things I'd scale as a Kitten in three leaps now require but one
Though I get there much more quickly, it's really not as much fun
Every day presented a challenge when I was a wide eyed, inquisitive ball
If I were to try to climb the curtains again, with my size we'd surely fall
Tables and chair, the couch and bed are easy prey for a Cat that knows his Space
And if I keep searching High and Low, I'll find a Brand New Favorite Place!
The furniture has moved and changed, though the new things haven't really grown in size
Climbing to the top of the Book Case is still my Cherished Prize
The Pretty One still smiles at my Feline Gymnastics as She watches from Her chair
Overall, I'd say they We are a well matched and very comfortable pair!
