My two humans
Have long firm noses
Hot breath
Seeking fingers
Stroking palms.

My two humans
Lie long together
In the frosty waking night.
They lie in warm places
Closing me out.
 
My good place is
Coiled on a warm lap
Under constant hand-caring.
 
My good place is
Between feet
By the hot hearth.
 
My one place is
In the bed
Between my two humans
Touching noses.

How lovely - I love the "my two humans". You have captured the essence of what it is to be a cat, I am sure - at least that's how we think it looks to them!

Beautifully expressed. How one cat-lover moves another cat-lover nearly to tears! It's ridiculous, like you would swear on Bibles that the other person is of impeccable character, more or less - like me.
