Caught in action

Image credit: Action Figures by Edith Vonnegut

We rummaged for toys

When everyone was gone

Three naughty little boys

Ready to play in the lawn.

We suddenly heard a car,

Being parked outside the house.

We thought our parents were far

While Kitty could find a mouse.

We had to scurry and hurry,

Keeping things back in place.

Making sure to silence the flurry,

And as they enter, to straighten our face!
