Please can I have pet with a pelt like water?
Please can I have a pet with a luscious nose
Please can I have a pet who needs no walkies
Please don't give me a dog…not one of those
Please can I have a pet who steps out sassy
Like the Queen of Sheba visiting New York
Please can I have a pet with eyes like spitfires?
Please don't give me a pig….I don't like pork
Please can I have a pet like a high wire leaper?
A pet that blows by, light as a summer's blouse
A pet as supple as olive oil in a pitcher
Please don't give me a gerbil, or a mouse!
Please can I have a pet with claws like razors
A pet when stroked, that sings like a crystal bowl
Please can I have a pet to share dark hours with
Please…can I have a cat with a midnight soul?
