The Felicity File
Guilty Cat
Editor's Note: CFP Columnist John Thompson has recently acquired a new member of the household. He has written the Felicity File: Encounters with my kitten
Guilty Cat:
So who disturbed my model tanks, their turrets all askew?
I’ve not touched them, except to dust – Felicity, was it you?
Two of four volumes of Dame Picard fallen open upon the floor;
Excellent histories to be sure, why didn’t you pull more?
My shaving brush was by the sink, now it lies upon the mat.
A poltergeist or an alien? The smart money’s on you, cat.
Those receipts for my taxes on my desk all neatly arranged,
Are now scattered widely; Only a feline could be so deranged.
Shredded paper adorns the floor, two of my paintings hang aslant.
I should rant and rave and roar, but when I find you, cat, I can’t.
An innocence you can’t possess is on your sleeping face
And in your sprawled and sleeping form there is a perfect grace.
