Kittens

Cuddly little balls of fluff climbing up my toes 
Before I know what's happening, one's licking my nose! 
Playful little bundles of joy
A little one bats at it's toy
I love spending time 
With these sweet little kittens 
One's got little white paws- I think we'll call her Mittens! 
What I love about cats 
Is easy to understand 
I love their little soft meows and their fluffy coats are grand!
I could spend my life surrounded by kittens
What better place to be? 
Kitten here, and kitten there, kittens as far as I can see!
Some people say kittens are snooty- why, you just have to get to know 'em!
So the next time you are asked
"Why do you love cats?" 
Just show them this poem!

Quaint, with one foot in the rhyme pool, would benefit from precise meter and solid formatting, to enhance the flow, it feels like you have down played the phrasing for a younger audience, decent write, but you have better writes in store...Ian

Yes, this poem was definitely aiming for a younger audience. Also, it was supposed to have a childlike joy about it. Thank you very much for your view of the poem. -XOXO Hannah
