Sanctuary for cats
Finally got that novel published
I never thought I would
Never mind the fact
It really made a fortune
At first I was elated
For adventures that awaited
Until the day I woke and thought
What's it all for?
For a while I pondered
Alone I paced and wandered
Until I finally saw
My destiny before me
A sanctuary for cats
We'd never have any rats
And all the cats without a home
Would never be alone
They could come as they please
And slink around with ease
And sleep before a roaring fire
In winter's longest nights
Beside great windows they'd rest
Knowing nothing but the best
And and eating delicious meals
Prepared by a full time chef
A library or a bookstore
For passerby to explore
That would do quite nicely
I've never wanted more
And as people choose their book
Down upon them cats will look
Curled up proudly with half moon eyes
We the guests within their home
