Emi


 

Emi is a little black cat 

Who knows quite a lot 

For instance, she learned one night 

That angels hang stars in the sky 

The moon is made of catnip 

And trees tell stories 

When the wind whispers in their branches 

Emi knows 

That sunshine was made to tickle 

A kitten’s belly 

And grass makes a soft carpet 

For tired paws 

If you promise to keep a secret 

She will tell you that Pocko 

Is in love with Maisie Cat 

Norman ate the last ice cream cone 

And Moo hid the red ball under the bed 

Emi knows about birds 

And wishes she could fly like her friend 

Jack Robin who comes for a visit every afternoon 

To eat worms and share stories of his travels 

There’s Maggie Magpie and her family 

Who come for tea and a bit of gossip 

When Emi is lonely 

She is indeed a wise cat our Emi 

Who knows quite a lot
