Old Tom and the Tiger - Caught

(nursery rhyme)
poésie érotique comiquement 25/30

We played in rough and tumble night
That brought ourselves to bare.
And now in sweaty heaps, The Sight!
“Oh, My!” the people stare.

It had begun a silly tuss’,
But bite and scratch did stir,
Within the game such slap and fuss,
Forgetting where we were.

We lost ourselves in nightly play,
Our happy want so strong.
We reached the zenith of our stay,
And even that prolong.

Collapsing then in laughing mess,
We curled to get some sleep.
The time gave way in spent prowess,
‘Til crowds surround our keep.

The people gape in odd surprise,
With pointing, cry “Is that…,”
The mothers shielding children’s eyes,
“A tiger and a cat?!”
