I know of a kitten;
Her twisting tail and blue steel eyes draw me in.
Her fur is a tawny gold, yet not;
it is many colours, dappling through her, emphasising her beauty.

She walks with a smooth and easy gait, smiling, laughing
at all that the world has to offer.
Her eyes are wise; they speak of things many ages before her
and many ages to come.

Never have I met such a sweet creature;
She takes every bad situation and shines a beam of hope upon it.
Never have I met one so optimistic;
in contrast to my pessimism, it is shocking.
Who knew a cat and bird could be friends?

She is kind where I am selfish,
and she is sensible where I am daft.
She always greets with a smile,
always purrs and laughs along.

She can make people feel as young and childish as a pixie,
or as old and as all-knowing as an ancient elf.
She drives back the shadows with a simple wave of a paw
and permits sunlight to be bright once more.

I love my Shadow-Kitten,
my Kitty,
my daring, beautiful, amazing little Cat.
I hope her next year and those coming are as perfect for her as she is to the world.
Happy birthday, Kitten.
I love you. I hope your day was as plain awesome as you are.

Anyway guys, this is a poem...ish thing to my darling friend Cat. It's her birthday. And I want her to know how much I love her. It came out sounding kinda gay....but it's all true. She's one of the best people I've ever met, and she really does make everything seem perfect again.
Love you, girl.

Aww.
This is beautiful. I love you, my sweet little bird. I must say this is the best birthday present I've ever been given.
Thank you so very much.
It's going on my wall when I get back to school. ^^
