Ode to the domestic feline 

I wish to recant my initial disliking of cats
They are to be called heroes for keeping away rats 
For this magnificent creature let us tip our hats 
Yeah ladies and gentlemen 
I bring to you, the cat 
King of it's own kingdom 
They are masters of the night 
But seem to vanish at morn's light 
Let's revere their prowess 
Stand in awe of their hunting skill 
Watch that strong muscles 
as they pounce for the kill
Eyes that gleam like two jewels 
on the Ethiopian ear of the sky 
Staring till the confidence in you die
Silent, deadly, elegant 
With their cunning 
They can take down an elephant
The furry demon from hell
Maybe once was much sweeter 
Who can tell? 
I say they're ferocious 
When they need to be 
And can also be great company 
When having your tea 
So in conclusion 
Cats are an acquired taste 
Appreciate them 
Or their beauty would be a waste 
elegant they are 
For they reign with the moon
and a sky full of stars
