Jenny's Poem
Her name is Jennyanydots,
of her species she is not quite certain;
Sometimes she acts just like a cat
such as when she's climbing the curtains.
At other times she seems convinced
that dog runs through her veins.
Like when she responds with alacrity
whenever she hears her name.
Jenny preys on creatures smaller than she
as any cat will do;
But then she trots right at my heels
Like any canine true.
She guards the house against all comers,
Any creature that draws breath;
She even chased a Pit Bull once
And scared it half to death.
Yet sometimes she purrs and arches her back
Much like any textbook cat
She flexes her claws and grooms herself
And pees all over my hats.
No, she's not quite sure just who she is
Or which species to call her own;
But that is why I love her so
And pay tribute with this poem.
