Roaming Cats

It isn't only dogs that like
To go out for a nice long hike;
Cats as well enjoy to be
Out on the street and walking free.along
Quickly or slowly they patter along,
Pausing if something seems to be wrong.
They sniff the air as if to say
"Who was here before me today?"
Acutely conscious of every scent,
No garden walls will them prevent
From going where their noses lead,
Leaping from fence to fence with speed.
When crossing a road they seem to know
If a car is going fast or slow.
Even when they travel far,
That is never a serious bar
To their returning to their home,
From wherever they choose to roam.
