Cat and Mouse

There's a mouse in my house and my cat wants to play. He stalks it like a lion stalks its prey. And when the time is right he pounces on the sneaky pest, and the game of cat and mouse is in full sway. I wonder who will win this fray? 11/11/12 Kim Merryman Based on a true event entered in PD's any poem from November contest.

the cat should win by law of nature!! But of course, that mouse could escape and then that would be a loss for the cat. I always enjoy reading etheree. Aren't they fun, Kim?
