Well, here's a few lines of humorous poetry about an experience I had recently.

The basic rhyme scheme is obviously  taken from Bob Dylan's "Man in the long black coat", a song that always had a deep impact on me. 

Anyway, please enjoy the quick read and until next time!

Cockies are chirping, the water is high

I sit on couch and ask myself why

Cows are mooing, the creek's flowing fast

Hay paddocks empty, the space is so vast

He's gone, not even a purr

The cat with the soft black fur

Chicken are roaming, so blue is the sky

Cars driving fast, just passing us by

The horses are grazing, 'neath trees oh-so tall

Leaves turning brown, it's the season of fall

It was hard to swallow, it stuck in my throat

I gave my heart to the cat in the soft black coat

Somebody's seen him near the fire on the chair

His eyes open wide, so soft was his hair

He looked in my eyes, when I stopped him to ask

If he wanted a pet, his face was a mask

He then ran away, I can only just guess

The cat in the soft black dress

There were no mistakes, it wasn't my fault

I gave him my heart, his shoulder turned cold

Gone is my dream, I've missed the boat

Run away hast the cat in the soft black coat

Skies turning grey, the rain's falling down

My smile has gone, I can only just frown

The fire is raging, I'm still feeling cold

My eyes softly weeping, my sorrows untold

He's bolted so fast as if given the spur

My dear cat with the soft black fur
