Beauty and the Beast
USED TO BE:
There was a time, long ago and far… far away
When my life, was drab… dreary and gray
THEN:
I met, an animal lover Princess… a human named Griffith
Upon whom every, creature her compassion, and… kindness spillith
AS SHE:
Rescues all kinds, children, cats, even… correspondent xanthochroids
With her, Herculean spirit, there’s… nothing she avoids
AND NOW:
I sleep at, night, contented smile upon… my face
Dreaming of her, in satin, and… angel lace
MUTUAL REWARDS:
Cold, lonely nights, are over, toes snuggle… to furr
Your feet and, I curl up to my… contented purr
WHO I WAS:
A nomad, chasing field mice, I… used to do
When not, playing with a friend… or two
WHO I AM:
Now docile, domesticated am I, living… in your home
As my wild, and roaming days… are gone
WHO YOU ARE:
Animal lover, from the heart… you see
Empathy, encompassing all life forms… from A to Z
WHO WE ARE:
A tom-cat, at home with a princess… of human-kind
Beauty and the Beast we are… of one mind
