Kitty cleans his white paws
And purrs with delight
As he rolls on his back
And into the night
He jumps to his feet
And pounces lightning fast
Catching his prey
A green blade of grass
He quickly turns and
Leaps onto the fence
And to the mongrel next door
Kitty growls in defence
For ten whole minutes
The angry dog barks at
The well mannered kitty
Simply smiles back
The back door slams
Kitty turns with a gleam
Yellow eyes seize the doorstep
Behold a fresh bowl of cream
He gallops to the dish
The cream milk is gone fast
Kitty's stomach grumbles
He is content at last.
