THE PERSIAN WITH AN AVERSION

 

A story is often told

About a cat so bold…

Ridding the house

Of every mouse

And eating them out in the cold.

–

There was a particular persian

Who had a special aversion…

To anything

With squeak or wing,

Found by her, her turf on.

–

The carnage became so great,

The cat frequently ate…

She ran aground

Whilst inbound,

And sticks in the cat door of late!
