Once a thought occurred beyond us, mischiefmaking so beconned us,
no one thinking of the future that's in store. Heaven help us, what is learing, suddenly a cat's appearing. Who's that feline, eyes so neering, scratching at my kitchen door? "Cat", I say, "You bore", I stammered, running to my kitchen door. "Outta here", you, I abjure. Well, whenever I discover, cats and dogs, I am no lover. O'er your "bod'" I dare to hover, "Disappear or I'll make war"! Standing there, I booted "Blacky", cats for me! I'll be no lackey. Feline fancy, it's just tacky, cats as pets, I'll have no more, for no fleas or midnight meows, feline fancies , I abhor. "Blacky, begone from my door!" ·······  ······· |

LOL!
You'd make POE proud Ron!   What a great rendition here and solid rhymes and rhythms keep me dancing along!  Of course, I like the furry creatures you mention but in all fun: Feline fancy, it's just tacky, cats as pets, I'll have no more, for no fleas or midnight meows, feline fancies, I abhor. "Blacky, begone from my door!" Damn fleas! WHy do cats sleep all day and prowl all night?  Cheers ~Cleo

Hi Ron
I use to be strictly a dog man but my wife had three cats and two dogs that went along with her hand in marriage I have been educated gradually by the felines.WE understand each other now,They were all highly protective of my lady and suspicious of me. But I am reagrded as pack leader now and entrusted with the task of protecting her They amaze me at times with thier level of understanding and vocaliation |
