Flat Cat

Cat lover Laura Lottie was much too fat
a chair was in jeopardy if on it she sat.
She was six ax handles wide
people quickly stepped aside.
But not seeing the cat, on it she sat--splat.

Thank you, Cheryl. You have introduced me to a new term, "chubbette." I I love it. BTW, thanks for your kind comment on "She Shall Be Praised" in the short story section. hugs x x x
