Smells like Love

Smells like Love

Oh tales to be told of cat and its tongue
Curious and rough designed like velcro
It cleans off my fur like scrubbing brillo
But tis of my nose this ballad is sung

Wait right there human where have your hands been.
I detect some soap and natural sweat
A hint of some food it smells dry not wet
I grant permission to pet and to preen

You got a new thing I'll sniff every inch
My detective nose can smell no danger
My friend got groomed and stinks like a stranger 
What are you eating sniff sniff made me flinch 

I pounce for i see a warm lap above 
Crawl up nuzzle in your neck smells like love

  1. Enjoyed this poem of kitty love -- and the nicely precise poetic form, well supported by witty imagery!
