Feline Dreamy for M'lady Lisette

childrens poem

 

Feline dreamy

 

Once upon a Tuesday morning,

it was early, day was dawning.

I looked outside to see

what kind of day t’was going to be.

 

Dearie me, oh fancy that,

there I saw a dancing cat.

This was very strange to see,

no one saw it, only me.

 

A twist, a glide, a pirouette,

it was a sight I shan’t forget

Dancing, prancing leaping high,

he danced alone beneath the sky.

 

A brilliant scarlet shirt he wore,

of finest silk from Bangalore.

His dancing shoes of patent leather

fit only for the finest weather.

 

His trousers were of forest green,

quite the tightest I had ever seen

Dearie me, oh fancy that

on his head was a bowler hat.

 

As he danced ‘twas plain to see

he was dancing just for me.

He stopped and gave a little bow,

and vanished with a single meow

 

I woke in bed I’m sad to say

that this had been my mind at play.

Things aren’t always what they seem

it was a lovely, lovely dream.
