“It's 8a.m. and time to rest
It's 10a.m. and time to relax
It's noon and time for repose
It's 3p.m. and time for shut-eye
It's 6p.m. and time for siesta
It's 9p.m. and time to slumber
It's midnight and time to snooze
It's 4a.m. and time to hang upside down from your bedroom ceiling, screaming.”
― Francesco Marciuliano

“Best not to ask "What is it?" until you finish rolling in it.”
― Francesco Marciuliano, I Could Chew on This: And Other Poems by Dogs

“Sometimes when I lie on your warm chest
And hear your every happy sigh
I gaze into your two kind eyes
And wonder, 'Who is that?”
― Francesco Marciuliano, I Could Pee on This: and Other Poems by Cats

“On the edge of a laughing teacup
Did Kubla Kat decree
The the corn fritter festooned with medals
Shall make the brownies free
And so the walls turned to water
To let our sorrows drown
As the chairs burned themselves for warmth
So they need not face the clown
Then the spoons burst into song
And all the forks they understood
As I stared at my talking claws
Becasue this catnip is just that good”
― Francesco Marciuliano, I Could Pee on This: and Other Poems by Cats
