Here's my entry. Hope you enjoy it.
Slinky mink, under covers,
A cartoon carpet bump, tunneling.
A pink nose, then whiskers,
Bright eyes, then soft suede ears,
Slinky mink, out and away,
A streak of soft fur across the room.
Bouncing, arching, teeth and tail,
Then gone again
Slinky mink, rolling happy,
Nose poking from under,
Turning and turning, teeth showing,
It vanishes, and quiet ensues.
Slinky mink, sneaky, silent,
Nipping toes from behind,
Tricksy ferret, clever, sly,
Creeping from behind you steal my heart.
