The Simplicity Of Kittens Poem by Rev. Rebecca Guile Hudson

I wish more people could be as easily smitten
With simple small joys, just like my kitten
Who delights to play with dirt, dust and straw
His vivacious antics just fill me with awe –

It startles me joyfully and gives me long pause
To watch twigs come to life in his prankish, quick paws

I’d love to be as easily amused
As this kitten is – he’s not confused
No, he’s happy with everything, just as it is
If I change my point of view and share his

I’ll appreciate each moment as they come and they go
And I’ll feel so much better – that much, I know!
