My Ferrets

My adorable one year old ferrets,
so cute and kind.
   Full of spirit and joy, always playful and mine.
They jump up and down, grabbing at each other.
   They weigh like two pounds.
Light on their feet, they hide and run around.
   Laying on the ground, anticipating and waiting for 
the right moment to attack.
   Cute, cuddly sounds, that sound like snickers.
Long, lean bodies that are graceful and fluffy.
   Round mouse ears, used to hear.
Little toes, that they use to scratch their nose.
   Always cheeky, squeaky and sneaky.
Shy ferrets, ready to fly.

Hi, stranger. Welcome to poetry soup! I enjoyed reading about your ferrets that I would surely know nothing about if I hadn't read this poem!  -KMD
