Bleak days are upon me. Well, everyone. The sun has gone south for the winter. The trees have given up their leaves, in hope of new life next spring. The neighborhood stray meows at my door, cold and hiding from the rain. She comes in and eats, then sleeps on the couch. It is some comfort to have a cat.

Languid.
Oh no not again I knew it would happen The unmistakable carpet stain An innocent look of "it wasn't me" As he bounds off upstairs To spread more mud "That's it you flee!" Next time I'll be ready With sponge in hand And towel at the door But you'll wriggle and squirm "Just give me your paw!" Swift and slippery You think this is a game Well i'm not impressed On hands and knees with a rub and a scrub Giving my patience the ultimate test!
