Wear no long face
When storms rage in your space
Flying and crying you out of place 

If you do

A bustling presence doesn't infer inactivity. 
Showing improvement with a crucial flurry. 

Prance ecstasy embracing a harsh ignite. 
Self-start binge; don't leave behind a Dwight.

Treats disappear with lightning speed

Dirt on the floor, but I don’t mind

Meant to set inside the square,
Wait to find out where it lands....

The somersault and overswing, the trampoline and horse, 
while knees and calves still had their spring 
and power in legs to play the game, 
and strength to run their course. 

I go there in my mind instead, though back and bones now ache, 
and hips...

A face with the bitterest frown,
For long years expecting a crown;
Now in prickly sweat bathed
And A Tongue is scathed …

It’s really an awful spectacle,
Facing no challenge, no obstacle,
As reported by his mirror
Doing so without error;
Ability he’s got and Agility
And all his life no infirmity.

So, why...

Charming feline with airs of nobility
Agile this olympian contender
Tomfoolery being its main specialty
