House Detective

Sitting here watching TV about the Sherlock Homes tales,
 
we are all biting our nails.
                                             
Who done it we ask~was it the whales,
       
waiting for the next scene and details.
                           
The door bell rings,
                                                   
who can it be~we all chimed in like kings.
                     
There was no door bell ringing in the TV show,
             
Mr. Orange got up to see who was at our door,
 
a few minutes later he returned with a roar.
                     
We asked~who was at the door for fun,
                           
Mr. Orange said~no one.
                                               
With tomato sauce running down his chin,
                   
the evidence was in.
                                                   
Mr. Orange had eaten the whole pizza with a grin, 
         
John must re-order one for us or we will become thin.
     
Never leave Garfield alone with a pizza box,
                 
he just cannot help himself when it comes with lox.
       
As the writer and house detective there is no doubt,
     
I have just figured this one out.
