Everyone Can be a Poet

Dean Koontz, a prolific writer whose books are typically read by adults, collaborated with Trixie Koontz (Dean's faithful companion also identified as a Golden Retriever) and illustrator Janet Cleland, to pen I,Trixie Who is Dog.  The opening of the tale, written in verse, is a perfect reminder that APRIL  is still National Poetry Month.
Dog is the best of the best things to be.
Sorry you are not dog.
Not everyone can be.
I decided to use Dean and Trixie's style to craft a cat's retort
Cat is the perfect creature - true
Want to see a  flawless feline?
Look at me, not you!
