A Cat's Prayer

[Dave]

Now I lay me down to sleep

I pray this cushy life to keep

I pray for toys that look like mice

And warm cushions soft and nice

For grocery bags where I can hide

Just like a tiger crouched inside

I pray for gourmet kitty snacks

And someone nice to scratch my back

For window sills all warm and bright

For shadows to explore by night

I pray I'll always stay real cool

And keep the secret feline rule

To never tell a human that

The world is really run by cats.
