Merlin the Magic Cat

Merlin, the magic cat 
Now old...and a little fat 
He would "Meow" or chitter-chat 
When time to use his old black hat 

"Meow, meow- Meow, meow" 
He does his tricks...I don't know how 
Wow, wow, wow- Wow, wow, wow 
His audiences- they stand and bow 

Merlin the cat, Merlin the cat 
He made disappear...an old white rat 
He's a little fatter, when you see him now 
'Cause the old white rat- well, was his chow

Delightful! Your Merlin should do very well in the contest. The final stanza is spot on - nothing like a little repast for a hungry cat. Sincere good wishes, Brian
