Half a sock and four needles, but no ball....
Through the kitchen (and back, but that's the end of the story)
Out the other end of the kitchen
Across the hall into the cat room
Around the leg of their chair in front of the register,
Across the hall into my room,
Around the dresser leg,
Back through the kitchen.
Jan gathered it all up, and suggested to me
He may have saved the sock from a wild attack of Mexican jumping beans,
Or not.
