Chasing the Cat

Simply softly these guileful feet do trot
Those cavalier whisper my name in glee
Hiding I pray from dear loves noble lot

My attire a smirk, though my voice distraught
I'll squirm far away, yet they be carefree
Simply softly these guileful feet do trot

A fervor shared though I am not caught
Innocuous yet gentle I agree
Hiding I pray from dear loves noble lot

Conceivably hidden in such a spot
Amenity relaxation could be
Simply softly these guileful feet do trot

Quickly to safety overhead I plot
Why does all the attention land on me?
Hiding I pray from dear loves noble lot

Perhaps one day I'll play whilst being sought
But as a cat I may just disagree
Simply softly these guileful feet do trot
Hiding I pray from dear loves noble lot
