Cats

Three cheers for the cats
Of every breed and colour –
 
The curtains-climbing brats,
Eyes glaring as skylights!
 
Agile and graceful pets
With truly princely manners –
 
Let’s simply love the cats,
All their flaws and merits!
 
Who cares if the flat
Is messed from top to bottom…
 
It matters that with cats
We’ll never die of boredom!
