Kittens. Poem by david lessard

Kittens are such playful things,
Bouncing all around -
A joyful glee, their antics bring,
Attacking paper mounds.

Jumping here and jumping there.
They wrestle, to unwind -
You know they haven't any care,
Just an inquiring mind.

A flash of color - a streak of fur,
As they race across the floor-
And in your lap, they'll sweetly purr,
Then they'll jump down for more.

Kittens are such loving things,
Just give them food and water -
Just sit back and watch their flings,
As on different spots they totter.

Kittens are like puppies, soft and cute as hell.
They brighten up most any room -
Just give them love and treat them well,
And let them chase your kitchen broom.
