Bryan Norton Poet Rhyme

Dogs Eat Cats

Dogs eat cats, cats eat rats 
Rats eat things that fall from bats
Bats eat bugs, bugs eat trees
Trees that fall on birds and bees

Birds and bees and bugs on logs
Logs and trees and polliwogs
Hungry fleas that feed on dogs
Venus fly traps feed in bogs

Napping gnats and flapping bats
Rats and rabbits pulled from hats
Cats with habits chasing rats
Bats make rabid habitats 

Copycats and acrobats 
Swinging with the alley cats
Wigs on pigs and hats on hogs
Should’ve quit with cats and dogs.
