Green-eyed Gizzy
The wonder cat
Who wonders at this
And wonders at that
She wonders what’s happening
Right over there
And pounces at nothing
And flies through the air
She bats at your hair
And chases a light
Then tries to ignore you
With all of her might
She wonders at sights
Outside the closed door
Then chases some foil
Balled up on the floor
She purrs like a lawnmower
Loud as can be
Then catches a fly
And then sets it free
She teases the dog
And chases his tail
Then dashes and hides
Without leaving a trail
Then slowly she peeks
From under the bed
Then wondering still
She cocks her small head
She’s queen of her castle
And rules her lair
And happiest only
When people are there
But when the day’s done
And the wondering’s through
Her favorite thing
Is to snuggle with you
After flicking her tongue
On the tip of your nose
She wonders again
And away Gizzy goes
