Iambs

Upon a stump the cheerful maiden sat
and played herself a merry little tune
on wooden flute, as by her rascal cat
her socks and shoes were quickly widely strewn

Upon a stump the maiden sat
and played herself a merry tune
on wooden flute, and by her cat
her socks and shoes were widely strewn

Upon a stump she sat
and played herself a tune
on flute, and by her cat
her shoes were widely strewn

The maiden sat
and played a tune
as by her cat
her shoes were strewn

she played
a tune
her shoes
were strewn

Reduced to its essence . . . very clever and very well done. "Essentially" what I do when I edit my own writing, though I've never thought to publish the process - it's much uglier than this.

I like your style, Baskenmütze.
Not only is this a technical triumph, it is also very amusing.
I am fond of cats.
Applause!
