From the desks of Moishe and Mordecai

Meet my two black cats

Moishe and Mordecai

two funny little fellows

to describe them I will try


They're quite entitled

so cocky, furry and sleek

They think we are their servants

They're not very meek! 


But yanno I wouldn't have 

them any other way

even their naughty antics

honestly make my day


they never once looked back

they never longed to roam

Moishe wandered a bit

but quickly came back home


it's true that Mord's a stinker

in fact he's a thieving brat

but still for all we love him

this light-pawed little cat


you always know where he is

by sound of things crashing 

as he pushes stuff off the counter

he particularly loves glass smashing 


and then there's us yelling

as he thuds to the floor

he somehow gets the treats

while we get the cleanup chore


he has zero conscience

we've concluded with defeat

without at least one cat-astrophe

his day is not complete


Moishe is loud and bossy

when to the basement he goes 

But he makes up for it with 

all the affection he shows 


And yanno I've learned  a lot

from my two kitty boys

to take my pleasures where I can

and celebrate the simple joys


So what's one jar among friends?

what's one stinky pickle-y mess?

not such a big hairy deal

if it gives them such  happiness


Mord this is no excuse for breaking 

and at you we will still exclaim

Moishe you'll get a scold too

you profit from his ill-gotten gain


But it's also a lesson on battles

those worth fighting and those not

what counts is loved ones including cats

and we're thankful for who we got
