Notes About The Poem

Why Do Cats Run Away and Leave Home or Not Come Back? - PetHelpful - By  fellow animal lovers and experts

I Heard a Meow

 
Once there was a small cat who often sat, inside my backpack- just jumped in that brat; at school I heard a meow, I had to hide her somehow; lucky, she was happy with a wee pat ! But after a nap she wanted to play, oh, stay in my bag kitty I did pray; but she got out for a view, and then away kitty flew; I took chase yelling, "oh look a lost stray !" __________________________ March 1, 2021 Poetry/Limerick/I Heard a Meow Copyright Protected, ID 03-1333-333-01 All Rights Reserved, 2021, Constance La France Both Limericks 10/10/7/7/10 Syllables per line Written for the Standard contest, Two Limericks - Let's Have Some Fun sponsor, Tania Kitchin, Judged 03/19/2021 Second Place
