A Pet
I’d like to have a pet, cats are the best I bet
They come in patches or plain
Try to tame them but all in vain
Little kittens are cute and playful
Anything will do, ball, yarn or wool
Eats fish, rats and mice
Long whiskers, paws and nine lives
Scary eyes that glow at night
But to me is an absolute delight
Likes to laze around, curl and sleep
Ah! Leaps at the sound of the jeep
When awake, meows and purr
I love to touch its soft fur
I’d like to have a pet
Cats are the best, I bet
