Notes About The Poem
Smokey was just the best friend in the world.
Smokey the Curious Cat
Through all his years he was such fun,
Companion, friend and more;
Adventure was his middle name,
And I was never bored.
As long as Smokey was around,
He'd brighten up my day.
He'd snuggle, cuddle, kiss and swat,
And say,"Come on, let's play."
I had some turtles in a bowl,
As cute as they could be.
They disappeared while I was out,
Found under the settee.
I had my suspicions,
About how they got there;
So I watched my little buddy,
But he never moved a hair.
Then one day he strolled by me,
With something in his mouth.
I followed him to the living room.
He crawled beneath the couch.
He placed a turtle on the floor,
And gently lay beside it.
Just watching it so patiently,
Not hurting it a bit.
Slowly it stuck out it's head,
Then it began to move.
Curiously he watched it go,
Thought Smokey, "He's got groove."
"I like this tiny little guy.
I wonder what it is."
I reached in and picked it up,
"Busted, here's the miz."
"These guys will die without their bowl.
Smokey don't do that."
But I still love you best you know.
You are the best of cats."
