The Floor

Way down here on the ground
is where I will always be found

Made of wood and other stuff
you can shine me, if you buff

I am plain and I am flat
I'm a place for your cat

Walk on me,
it's ok
that's why I am here today

You can choose a rug for me
I won't complain if it's ugly

You can construct
me from wood
and I will last
like a good floor should.

When something slips
from your hand
I will catch it
see it land?

Everything lands on me
that's because of gravity

You will find me everywhere
beneath your feet with room to spare

If you don't find
me appealing
then meet my friend
Mr. Ceiling!
