Poem
Sam the Cat I am I'm a boy cat and my name is Sam People tell me how lovely I am Perhaps they're right, I am sort of cute Guess it’s down to my shiny smart suit. I love to wander when I’m outdoor Wildlife to stalk, places to explore Must return home eventually Especially when it's time for tea. I feel sad for my neighbour Kitty Always stuck indoors, what a pity Watching me play from the window ledge Why doesn't she come out and stretch her legs. She watches me running wild and free Chasing the birds that fly from the tree Whatever is it, why should it be Kitty won't come out to play with me. Heard the folk who own her saying that Kitty is afraid of mice and rats That seems so odd and strange to me Cooped up and never to roam freely. Kitty has a coat of copper fur No one was ever as sweet as her Huge amber eyes alike almond drops That send my heart a flip-pity-flop. I pray for Kitty to play outside For her to roam round the countryside Being together the whole day through Many a prank two of us could do. Chasing butterflies, the birds and bees Super-charged squirrels who run at speed There's plenty of field mice we would tease As a duo we'd do it with ease. If I were given luck and the chance We two could be enjoying romance Beneath moon and silvery starlight "Kitty, come out and start living life." 8th August 2021
