Squeak

As the sun beats over head
a furry ball flashes passed
racing all around the garden
how long will this madness last

dashing in and out flowers
or up and down the fruit tree
then chasing frogs by the pond
you seem to have such energy !

but just as suddenly
you flop down to the ground
exhausted from your run about
purring is now the only sound.
