Kitty Tails
by Marijo Phelps(18)Goodbye Tony Kitty
Tony looked at me
As if he knew .
Dared me
As he pounced away
Into the garden
Wrestling a flower
I called him,
Haughtily
Up went
His tail
His paws
Stepped him
Out of reach
Tony knew
And wouldn't come
Because Tony sensed
I'd return
But not for him
And he attacked
The powerless flower
Crazy Kitten
Around and round she went
Chasing her toy she stopped
For her little cat-nip mouse
In front of the dog kerplopped!
Cautiously she looked at him
A great golden mass of fur
The retriever drowsily snoozing there
Didn't even stir
The tiny kitten gazed at him
And blinked her big blue eyes
The huge dog dozing there
Was about nine times her size
Cautiously she raised her paw
And sent that mouse a skittering
Right straight into the doggie's nose
That set his eyelids flittering.
Oh, Ohhhh.
Tiny Tornado
Tika Marika Thunderpaws
Was tearing 'round the house,
Tika Pasqueaka Thunderpaws
Was batting a cap nip mouse
Thud, thunk, tumbling down
You should see her hit home base
Sliding here, careening there
At her hyperactive pace
Tika Marika Fat-Cat
Was fluffy as can be
Running here, running there
Chasing after me
Behind the couch
Upon the sill
Faster and faster
Running still
She trounced that mouse
And ditched me too
Like it was really
Easy to do
Tika Marika Thunderpaws
Where, oh where would we be
Without the fluffy Fat-Cat
Whirlwind for us to see.
