Tiny

curled up cat
Curled up at my feet in the morning,
In one of her thousand strange forms.
Her fur is a million shades of grey,
Shines blue in the sun.
Her eyes are the colour of milk chocolate,
Her paws, so small,
And one of my biggest sources of joy.

She understands when I call her name,
And I can tell the difference in her voice,
When she wants food or attention.
My heart melts when she steps on my feet,
So that I wouldn't ignore her.
As if I ever could.

Deep down, I want to become more like her.
As goofy, gentle and full of love.
