Jumping on the piano
quite fat
looking for a role model
saw a cat in a hat
He sat on the table
looking quite thin
chatting as he ate dinner
getting food on his chin
Picking up the newspaper
reading about current affairs
thought for a moment
stating life is not fair
Take my advice
eat until quite content
stare humans in the eye
they will wonder the intent
Swinging his umbrella
singing as he walked out the door
dancing in the puddles
the rain began to pour

Loved this, it’s eerie too, how similar our poem’s themes were!
Thank you. My apologies for similar themes it was not intentional. I was thinking of one of my favorite books from childhood The Cat in the Hat by Dr. Suess. He was a brilliant storyteller. Thanks for reading. Have a wonderful day!
I love all Dr Seuss stories! Especially Green Eggs and Ham, and Cat in the Hat, but my favorite is The Grinch!
The Grinch is cool. The original Christmas cartoon version is the best. So creative. Have a wonderful day!
You as well!
awesome Debbie! A visit from a cool cat sounds like fun!
Thank you. I am a fan of Dr. Seuss and it just seemed like fun. Thanks for reading.
