GOD'S PERFECT CREATION
When God created kitty cats,
He had no
recipe,
He knew He wanted something sweet,
As sweet as sweet could
be.
He started out with sugar,
Adding just
a trace of spice,
Then stirred in drops of morning dew,
To keep them fresh
and nice.
He thought cats should be soft to
pet,
Thus he gave them coats of fur,
So they could show they were
content,
He taught them how to purr.
He made for them long tails to
wave,
While strutting down the walk,
Then trained them in
meow-ology,
So they could do cat-talk.
He made them into acrobats,
And gave
them grace and poise,
Their wide-eyed curiosity,
He took from little
boys.
He put whiskers on their faces,
Gave
them tiny ears for caps,
Then shaped their little bodies,
To snugly fit on
laps.
He gave them eyes as big as
saucers,
To look into man's soul,
Then set a tolerance for mankind,
As
their purpose and their goal.
Benevolent ... and ... generous,
He
made so many of them,
Then charged, with fatherly concern,
The human race
to love them.
When one jumped up upon His lap,
God
gently stroked its head,
The cat gave Him a kitty kiss,
"What wondrous
love," God said.
God smiled at His accomplishment,
So
pleased with His creation,
And said, with pride, as He sat back,
"At last.
. .I've reached purr-fection!"
