Blockade Runner
The brick wall that kept the dogs in
Also caused them to make a din
Whenever the cat would run or walk across the wall
But the bricks were much too tall
for them to reach that furry feline ball
The nimble cat would pay them no mind
She knew the dogs couldn't jump that high
They would bark and growl and even sigh
At this creature of the feline kind
The cat with coat of gray and white
always found great delight
Whenever she walked across those bricks
And watched those mutts perform their jumping tricks
Once in a while she'd stop and take a bow
And give the canines a great big meow
