“Snow-white kitty, soft and fair” by Deanna Paukstitus

Snow-white kitty, soft and fair,

Silken fur, a maiden’s air,

Wispy bow tied ‘round your neck,

Pinkish nose, cream-colored specks;

Sit upon my lap, I beg,

Lick my palm, brush past my leg

Sweetly, like a tender cloud,

Or child’s song sung sweet and proud,

For your presence, blessedly,

Grants the gift of love to me

All I want is fur on skin,

Snow to sink my fingers in;

Kitty mine, don’t draw your claws

When I sweep you off your paws

Into my arms, for you are loved,

My sweetest prize, sent from above
