Fat Cat

by Charles E Minshall

In a chair where I sat
I watched a fat cat,
Lying on a mat
In a sunbeam stretched flat,
And thought to myself
I should do that.
Lying on a mat
In a sunbeam stretched flat,
Alongside one purring cat,
A-h-h-h-h that's where it's at.

how often I think they (our pets) show us what we really need to do - basically, slow down, luxuriate a bit, in the simple pleasures. It's why yoga often mimics animals. Well done.

Toooo Cute.... and I wonder... if on that mat beside the fat purring cat, if there would be room, If one could assume.... that the sun would shine and warm them through if they should stop for a moment to say hello to you, and the fat purrrrrrring cat ... *grin*....
