1395.0. "A Cat Owner's Prayer" by SKETCH::BASSETT (Design) Fri May 20 1988 19:55

    This poem came from a card my mom sent me the other day.
    
    
    			A CAT OWNERS PRAYER
    
    		Because I'm only human,
    			it's sometimes hard to be
    		The wise, all-knowing creature
    			that my cat expects of me.
    		And so I pray for special help
    			to somehow understand
    		The subtle implications
    			of each proud meowed command.
    		Grant me inspiration
    			to create creative menus,
    		And post me by the door on time
    			to see to change of venues.
    		Oh, let me not forget that chairs
    			were put on earth to shred,
    		And that what I like to call a lap
    			is actually a bed.
    		I know it's really lots to ask,
    			but please, oh please, take pity,
    		And though I'm only human,
    			make me worthy of my kitty!
