A great little poem gary. I'm not a cat lover at all and perhaps for that
reason might have preferred it a little shorter, but it's good work IMO.
Cheers,
Frank

>Little tuxedo,
>Tiny black kitten,
>Sneak through the sage,
>Mint, rosemary, oregano,
>Your tail tip twitching.
>Catch a bee,
>Catch a wasp;
>Let them go.
>Catch a spider,
>Catch a fly.

>In the door,

>Why don't you settle down?

>Little tuxedo,
>Tiny white feet,
>Creep through the roses,
>Red, gold, bronze, cream,
>Your whiskers trembling.
>Chase a robin,
>Stalk a thrush;
>Always a little too slow.
>Pounce at a jay,
>Spring at a finch;
>Never catch them in the air.

>In the window,
>Out the window,
>Why don't you go to sleep?

>Little tuxedo,
>Black and white cat,
>Sneak by the garden hose,
>The pots, table, chair,
>Your moving form nearly still.
>Pursue a mouse,
>Hunt a shrew;
>Around the deck you go.
>Tease the mouse,
>Toss the shrew;
>But do not put them in my chair.
>
>Out the door,
>In the window,
>Don't bring the mouse in the house.
