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 purrrrr-fection.
