The Cat in the Stripy Stilettos...
The cat in the stripy stilettos
walks high above the ground
tip toeing on the rooftops
is where he can be found.
Though many try to beckon him
encourage him to come down
instead, he flashes his stripy stilettos
hidden underneath his gown.
For even though our cat's a Tom
he likes to dress up nice
for when he's dancing on the tiles
he likes to stand out, bright.
Now when Tom or our Tomettea, as
he sometimes likes to be known
is dancing in his ballgown
his stripy stilettos glow.
He struts his stuff, majestically
he smiles and never frowns
the time when he is happiest
is high above the ground.
The cat in his stripy stilettos
loves his nights out on the tiles
for every night when midnight strikes
Tomettea can be found.

ha, now I know where Mr P goes at night. But I've told him I draw the line at a pantie girdle. And if he steals my vermilion lippie. again, the cat's in the fire! Lovely poem, Annette!
I think every cat has issues: -) only the shadows know what they are up to, a very nice humorous poem Annette.
Caught the attitude of that cat just right, Annette, they are such egotistical creatures!
