dilatory: slow to act
******I hope I don’t make you all crazy with my Cat in the Hat poetry!******
The Cat Waits
The cat was so sad
The children were gone
They had to go out
To school ‘cause it’s fun.
He wanted to play
But was dilatory
He should’ve been sooner
And now he’s sorry.
The cat he decided
To stay at their home
He’d wait for the bus
He’d try not to roam.
When the kids got to him
He’d be ready to play
He’d make sure the toys
Were hidden away
From the mom and the dad
Mom tried cleaning the house
When the kids were at school
She worked with her spouse
But once they get home
He’ll take out the toys
They’ll play with them all
They’re for girls and for boys.
And once they are done
The cat goes away
Back to his own home
Where he’s gonna stay.

Thank you for saying so. At least I know one person will be able to put up with my nonsense!
