My Shadows

I have three cute little cats
who follow me everywhere.
Every time I turn around,
all three are always sitting there.

I guess they are afraid,
I might do something they can't see.
Privacy is something
they don't allow for me.

I swear they sit and watch me
while I try to go to sleep.
They're always up and staring,
if I make a little peep.

But they're so cute and cuddly
and I love all three,             
so I guess that I don't mind
three pairs of eyes watching me!

      The love of my Life

The love of my life is wonderful,
he's such a handsome cuss!
He's sweet and forgiving,
never one to make a fuss.

It doesn't matter what I do,
he loves me anyway.
I never have to worry
that he will someday stray.

But if he does decide to leave,
he'll never go too far at all.
My door is always open to him,
and he always comes when I call.

He never fusses if dinner is late,
nor complains about a cluttered house.
He doesn't mind if the dishes are dirty,
but he gets excited if he sees a mouse!

He'll chase that mouse around the room
swiping at it with murderous glee,
flinging it around the room,
there's nowhere safe for it to flee!

He's sweet as he can be, and yet,
there's one thing that bothers me so.
He loves our bathroom toilet,
he thinks it's his private watering hole!

Still, I love him dearly,
and I could never let him go.
He's my own sweet lovable cat,
my cute and cuddly Gizmo.
