My spider plant had babies,
I was tickled at what I found!
I planted them very gently
In a pot, not in the ground.

Went outside to check them,
see how they were growing.
I'd figured they were doing good
Walked outside without knowing.

The cat who keeps me up at night,
Had made that pot his seat.
Now my babies are lying flat,
trampled by his body and feet.

So now I must try to save them
Going to be hard, I hope they're fine
But the cat's got a real awakening
I'm planting cacti next time!!!

Those cacti thorns are very sharp
And also very long.
If you want to hurt them with a pr..k
Why not just call Long John?

I really love my cats!!! I have 2, and both are pregnant. My neighbors moved away and deserted them....so I adopted them. All of my plants are soft, I promise!

Carolina Girl,
I thought the poem was funny and with no harm intent. Nice one.
