Cat Talk

Suzanne Mondoux · 2 May 2020

You wake me every morning with your cat talk You sit with me when I’m sad You wait for me by the window You’re cat talk greets me the moment I walk in You mean every word You’re always honest You’re always there

Cat talk is never misleading Cat talk tells me what you want me to hear Cat talk means something to you and me

What do you really do when I’m not home What do you think when you’re on your own What do you feel when there’s no cat talk

Cat talk is how you’ve learned to talk to me But I know you just by the way you sit, by the way you look at me I know you without the cat talk I know you as you are I know you as you

Cat talk is not for the faint hearted Cat talk is for the listener Cat talk only when necessary Cat talk only when something to say

Cat talk, I’m honoured you’re talking to me
