I Once Had a Gray Cat That Could Clog

I once had a gray cat that could clog and was better than any old dog. His feet work was fast but stardom didn’t last when he fell for this stunning tree frog. My gray cat and tree frog was to wed on night he was to dance for our bread. He got very sick when frog he did lick was quiet toxic, now gray cat is dead. When gray cat finally reached cloud nine told gate keeper he was feeling fine. Though he looked quite green he captured the scene when he clogged to the front of the line.
