To All The Divas Of The Canteen

"Kitten 101"

My Humans have an endless supply of advice for free
What is odd, is that they direct a lot of it at me!
Using big, long words and a warning tone in their voice
They think their words will somehow alter or change my choice
Especially where curiosity and Instinct demand that I have none
Or there is a high potential for Strategy and Fun

My Humans' latest warning came after the incident with The Fish Place
Where its shiny tenants move through water with slow, delightful grace
Within their small intriguing world held in by thick and see-through walls
The first time I saw the Shiny Ones, I strongly felt Nature's call

To get much closer, so I leapt up on the Table made of wood
And tried to balance atop one the Fish Place's walls, if I could

Not an easy trick for a Kitten, with one paw reaching down
That sent me leaning forward more when the clear cold "Wet" began to surround
My furry fingers with a sensation that sent a shock along my tail
Which caused me to lose balance and fall into Shiny One's odd shaped pail
That sent me scrambling and howling, experiencing a whole lot of No Fun!
Quickly concluding my impromptu class with My Humans in "Kitten 101"
