Fishy

The cat crawls
The cat growls
Fustration, preadation
Fishy, fishy swimming in the tank
Come fishy, fishy I won't hurt

The cat crouches
The cat pounces
Fishy, fishy you are mine
My, oh, my you look divine

The cat sleeps
Not a peep
Fishy, fishy you tassted good
You didn't scream 
Like I thought you would

LOL, I can see this witty scenario unfolding so vividly through your words, Elizabeth! Most fish don't make any noise at all, but there are fish called "grunts" that croak like frogs. The cat might have been a bit surprised if he'd pounced on one of them. Great work! Love, Carolyn
