Cat and Mouse

Late night I come
Dog greets and barks
He chases, I run

Next night I come
Ready with sticks
I chase, he runs

Days go Nights come
Dog plays cat and mouse
I chase or run

Then came the Night I dread
The Dog descends the stairs
Unaware I climb the stairs

We greet face to face
Scared to death
I run down

The Dog darts above

This is very funny, Suresh! Really like the way they both bolt after coming "face to face." Guess neither one was prepared for a bout. Very cool poem! Love, Carolyn
