The Extraordinary Cat

There once was a cat named Lou,  

Who wore a top hat and bowtie too.  

He’d dance on the roof and sing to the moon,  

In a polka-dot suit that made people swoon.

Lou fancied himself quite the swanky gent,  

With a monocle that was always bent.  

He’d sip on tea from a dainty cup,  

While his fish tank sat with the goldfish up.

He’d juggle some sausages, make them fly,  

Then chase them down with a gleam in his eye.  

His neighbors would watch with a mixture of awe,  

As Lou took a bow with an exaggerated paw.

ng he'd prance to a classical beat,  

In tap shoes that clicked on the city street.  

He’d tip his hat to the puzzled parade,  

While making a statue of mashed potatoes displayed.

One day, he declared with a flourish so grand,  

That he’d cook a banquet for all of the land.  

But when it came time for the grand feast,  

He served up a buffet of scrambled beast.

So here’s to dear Lou, with his antics so fine,  

In a world of the silly, he’ll always shine.  

For life is absurd, a marvelous ride,  

And Lou’s top-hatted humor is bona fide.
