Your Words Are Cats

Your Words Are Cats

I cuddle every word
you give to the world
I see them swirl and fuzz
becoming cats where words once was
I keep them here around me
because they are good company
they rub against my legs and purr
with their paragraph thick fur
all your prepositions
pounce about as kittens
your verbs get into tangles
like tomcats they wrangles
with adverbs circling 'round
chasing tails they have found
while your adjectives judge the best
from the window seats as they rest
the calico colors of your nouns
and your tortoise shell pronouns.
