The cat that met me

A ginger tom cat cut across my way
And ran to greet me in a rush of fur.
With great delight, I saw he'd come to play
And show his friendship with a winning purr.

To my surprise, he then began to squeeze
Figures of eight between my unclad pins
In silky movements, done with perfect ease
And complemented with sly feline grins.

His bearing had the manner of a king,
Replete with gracious gestures he bestowed -
I realized it had been no small thing
To learn to dance with ginger a la mode!
