Raindrops
Virginia Salter

Raindrops keep fallin’ on my pet
they make him awf’ly, awf’ly wet
he wants to come in
while I sit and spin
a yarn or two upon the web

But he leaves a paw print
every where he does a stint
an’ it’s sendin’ me outta my head

Now most of you know
from the word get go
I keep my house spotless to a tee
and those kitty-cat tracks
really arch my back
and put myself right next to me

they cause my nose to grow
when I make such a show
for prevaricatin’ enters my poe’s you see

So take these words
as being quite absurd
forgive my little fibs displayed
as I easily admit
I’m quite full of it
I’m trustin’ you won’t be dismayed

Thanks, Elizabeth, for reading. Glad you enjoyed! I have fun writing about my particular 'art' of non-housekeeping. ;o}

This was sweet Virginia.

I'm a messy one ... I just let the tracks fall where they may, I'm just grateful to have the little feet that make them, LOL ... great poem!

Best wishes,
/Kit

LOL I think there's a lot of that going around, much to the chagrin of our ancestral generation.
