A Cat Likes To Hear You Calling

If Your Sister Is In A Tearing Hurry To Go Out And Cannot Catch Your Eye, She's Wearing Your Best Sweater.

The Baby Rises To Its Feet, Takes A Step, Is Overcome With Triumph And Joy - And Falls Flat On Its Face. It Is A Pattern For All That Is To Come! But Learn From The Bewildered Baby. Lurch To Your Feet Again. You'll Make The Sofa In The End.

The Child Who Ran Weeping To You With A Cut Finger Is Now Brought Home, Smiling Gamely, With A Broken Collarbone And Incredible Contusions- 'it Wasn't Jezebels Fault, Dad.'

You Took Me To Adventure And To Love. We Two Have Shared Great Joy And Great Sorrow. And Now I Stand At The Gate Of The Paddock Watching You Run In An Ecstasy Of Freedom, Knowing You Will Return To Stand Quietly, Loyally, Beside Me.

For Sheer Excitement You Can Keep Movie Premieres And Roller-coasters . An Empty White Canvas Waiting To Be Filled. That's The Thing.
