Old Tomcat

There was an old tomcat named Sox 
Who enjoyed his brown cardboard box
He'd jump right inside
play there and hide
Old Sox in a box 
Really rocks

Thanks Deb :-) My own cat Elle inspired this one as she loves sitting inside cardboard boxes and even inside the large brown grocery bags. Lol
