The kitties are shut out of the study at night. When the door between the living room and study is opened, this is what happens.

Open the door…
Here they come.
A furry flood
Of little cat feet

Caroming off
The study chair
Scaling the shelves
To leap from there.

Down over shoulder
Cross the keyboard
A Romping, tromping
Furry hoard.

Mining closets
For some fun
Asleep on your lap
When they are done.

    Sounds like you have many cats Daisy.

    I have two and one of them loves to sit on my knee and on the laptop at the same time, she likes the warmth – sometimes punctuation can be an issue as I have to fathom about in amongst the fur to find a full stop.

    A fun & lively piece, Daisy. I can imagine them romping up the study…

    Sounds like the mad rush my dogs make for the backdoor first thing in the morning.
