A life on the sofa,
To look at birds,
To investigate attics,

A life to be a star,
To stretch his blue legs,
To crunch yellow mice,

A life to be caressed,
To jump up on the moon,
To make singing purrs,

A life of big cuddles,
one night which tempts me,
filled with rendez-vous,

A life of big tomcat....

You almost make me want to be a cat...save for the "crunching yellow mice." I'm also hardly aloof enough for their lifestyles.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

I have five cats. They are amazing creatures and they know how to live as long as there is someone to care for them. You are a astute observer of cats, yann.

My three kitties love this, Yann.  They smirked and said there should be more cat poems.  I have to agree - it's my job.
