Fluffy Cats

Fluffy cats frivolous
laying on best linen
faces oblivious 
excessively grinning
Impudent sparrows 
and chattering larks,
wooing old ladies 
beyond in the park
Standing on limestone paths
Where nervous starling waits
Grabbing scraps from dishes
ballet on garden gates
Yawning pink palate 
wet stabbing teeth.
Folks cannot pass them
but stroke on the street
But when night falls dark
and paws are licked clean
They enter town parks
While old ladies dream

Cool rhythm and rhyme... strong imagery and short colorful phrases like '...yawning pink palate wet stabbing teeth.' Well done Declan... Keith
