Ode to Onyx
When I saw a certain black kitten, he ensnared my heart
I knew he was to be a part of our little family from the start
The name that I came up for him was one that I thought fits
Being such a black beauty, he deserved the name Onyx
Stunning, agile, full of energy, & often ready to pounce
Quite comical he can be when he like a rabbit does hop & bounce
Now & then he needs to lay down so that he can recover
But then he's at it again, looking to see what mischief he might discover
He is as full of love as he is energy
His display of adoration is shown so simply
Nudges, purrs, & settling on our laps
While being petted, he sometimes upon us takes his naps
He knows me in a way that no human ever could
But that's because his instincts tell him things ours rarely would
When I am sick, in pain, or just having a bad day
He'll lay with me & until I feel better, that is where he stays
It's true that I am quite fond of my little Onyx
He & I are a combination that does mix
More than just a pet, he's become a dear friend
A part of my heart he will be until the very end

I gave this challenge to myself back in January, to write a poem a day in the month of February. I wanted to challenge my creative mind, delve deep within and write about the things and people that matter most to me.
