Curious Cat

As the the lights glistened on my Christmas tree My curious cat came near He seemed content to sit and stare Or at least so it did appear But when his curiosity got the better of him He took a swipe at an ornament His paw got entangled in the wires As he snarled to show discontent But the more he tried to free himself The more entangled he got I tried to calm the feline down But soon I was also in a knot It wasn't long before we tumbled down Christmas tree and all I managed to get up after the fall Only to see my cat running down the hall Now when I decorate the Christmas tree My cat stays far away I guess I'll have no more catastrophes Unless Santa Claus gets stuck in the chimney!
