The Cat Man

The kitties tear around the house
Not afraid of anything not even a mouse
With a Spot here and a Squeak there
Zoom Zoom going everywhere
Glad that Happy is as Happy does
The flavour of the month is Butterscotch, or it was

Larry lets them roam at will
They are even on the window sill
A more indulgent father they won't find
He lets they play as he unwinds

Too bad that Larry has no skill
At cards, because he surely will
Keep losing though he tries with might
He needs to get better partners every night

Unless we let him finally win
He might decide to take to gin
Larry you are a great treasure
We are all glad we have gotten your measure

I'm sure this made him smile. You could have called him Pussy Man that might have stirred the pot even more.

Larry loved it because it gave him some importance in his life. He is not well and needs to have a lift in life. Thanks for reading. Blessings Edith
