Sixth Place

 
I have a kitty so cute and she is stuck to me like glue,
where I go she thinks that she must come too;
she follows me to the garbage and laundry room each day,
and we walk around the building and outside on a leash (her not me).
She loves to roll on the grass and smell flowers and will not run away,
'cause she is stuck to me like glue, like glue, she is stuck;
while watching TV, or at the computer or in the bathroom she is with me,
and she helps me water the plants only taking a few bites.
But, does not help with housework-  she hates it and hides under the bed,
she greets all people at the door with a sweet but loud MEOW;
saying you may pet my head and scratch my chin but don't pick me up,
and she will follow them- Oh, be careful she does not drink your tea, I warn. 
When frightened she is stuck to me like glue for she is afraid of thunder,
and fireworks (me too !) Oh, I have to be careful I don't trip over her;
and she brings all of her toys to me when I am sleeping at night,
I wake to squeaky mice, balls and a sleeping kitty stuck to me like glue !
