one day, the Cat has come at home
and said: "my wife and children!
I guess, it's time we have to go
and get our family pictured."
the wife has pur-purred: "it's a time,"
the kittens have exclaimed, "hoorah!"
the Cat puts on his hat,
takes his wife through a paw/hand,
and, kittens picked up, all of them,
the family flies to the aim.
a photo-master, an old Goat,
has led them into photo-store,
he was polite and very sweet,
the Cat and lady-Cat were seated
in center-placed chairs,
on bench the Kittens were sat,
the family looks pleasing taste,
and everything is perfect!
Mom has a rosy dress with lace,
Dad is in a purple garment,
all Kittens have the bows and bands,
a moment - here we now!
the Goat got the camera aimed,
"attention, please!", - the Goat said,
"look, children, watch the birdie! -
oh habit has betrayed here.
the Cat, the Lady, seven kids
have headlong jumped onto a gear,
the Cat has grasped the lens.
a tripod scuds, and lights are off,
the portrait, in a shorter word,
was not completely happened.
