from the soupy mix of genetics

comes the wonderful world of color shape and form.

flowers came forth and jumped in our existence with magical song.

so sing the joy and our wonderful friends

that we gaze with our human lens

photograph the happy life

of our grand and illustrious spice.

they roamed the earth both big and small

they traveled the land short and tall

but in all their stories lost in time

the cat is still the ghost of the of all rimes.
