A troll's riddle


"Come closer, two-legged servants of felines, and answer a riddle in rhyme,
And if you answer it right, I’ll give you the gift I store for wintertime.”
“If I snore loudly through a snore-cancelling microphone,
Would I be a trolling kitty or just a squirrel with a jokey tone?"

(The first two lines are a parody of Harp Twins' song "The Twins And The Trolls".)
(And a troll's riddle has no answer, it is a play of silly nonsense.)

Slippers

A bard song dedicated to neighbor cat Tom

When the wicked treacherous slippers invaded our home
Humans fled, as if the Huns were approaching Rome
By a mighty swing of a paw
By a leap the swiftest of all
A feline legendarily defeated the slippers at the door~
Like Sir Francis Drake kept the Spanish Armada off British shore
