A Cat's Life

Sometimes I wish I were a cat
So soft and warm and gloriously fat.
With nought to do but lie around all day,
Pretending I'm asleep and hearing people say,
I wish I were a cat.

But then, their life is really very brief
And slumber comes so often like a thief,
So all the things which could have been that day,
Too soon,like them,have gently slipped away.
I'm glad I'm not a cat!
