Cats Make It Chill

Morning light spills through the blinds, the coffee brews so slow
I stretch and yawn, my cat appears, ready for the show
He jumps onto the desk with grace, his paws tap on the keys
I laugh and push him gently off, "Not now, my little tease"
But he persists, with playful eyes, a nudge, a soft meow
I smile and start my work anew, with him beside me now

Lunchtime calls, I take a break, a sandwich and some tea
My cat curls up upon my lap, his warmth a comfort to me
I stroke his fur, he purrs aloud, a gentle, rhythmic sound
In this moment, all is calm, with peace and love abound
His eyes half-closed, he drifts to sleep, a peaceful midday nap
I sit back in my chair and smile, content within this gap

Afternoon, the work resumes, the clock ticks on the wall
Emails sent, reports to write, and yet, through it all
My cat stays near, his presence light, a guardian of peace
His silent watch, a calming force, my worries find release
As shadows stretch and daylight fades, the tasks near their end
I feel a sense of quiet joy, with my feline friend

Evening comes, the day is done, I shut the laptop down
My cat and I, we move along, to where the meals are found
I start to cook, he sits and waits, his eyes so big and bright
Together in the kitchen's glow, we end our peaceful night
The world outside may rush and roar, but here, we find our peace
In quiet moments, side by side, our happiness released

Work is done, it's time to eat
Dinner prep, a welcome treat
