Prayer-Cat Poem by Loke Kok yee
Prayer-Cat
Dear divine Bastet- - - - - - - - -of the sun or moon whatever
To you I do entreat- - - - - - - - - - - - - for I need a big favour
For rats I have been chasing- - - - -but ‘twas without success
There're issues to be solved- for they cause me great duress
For starters tell me why- - - - - - - - - or what may it be I lack
They always know I'm coming- - -have they eyes at the back?
It will be of help- - - - - - - - if they are born with longer tails
Then they'll be a cinch to catch- - - - - - O what a happy tale
Also be convenient- - - - - - - - - - - - - if I'm as small as a rat
I'll get them in their dens- - - - -where they had in safety sat
Please grant me my prayer- - - - I have been such a good cat
Loke, how you are able to understand the thoughts of cats. A divine prayer to Bastet - the Goddess of the Sun. May the prayer of the cat be fulfilled. Thank you Loke for sharing such a cute cat poem.10+
May God change the today's warriors in monkeys who sitting on a tree can just show their teeth only. A wonderful poem.
Lol...I instantly laughed at the opening lines and I love the earnest look on the cats face. Loke your poems continue to uplift and lighten my spirit....10
