''There Is No Place Like Home'' - Wiz

I was just a little lost cat, so afraid when that wild, crazy tornado hit; so, I hopped into a nearby basket lying quite flat, then, this girl, her dog and me were spinning and wind lit. Along with blown debris we spun, landing in a fantasy land tattered, confused and undone; then, skipping down a yellow brick road singing in the sun. She was Dorothy and Toto was my new friend, we were joined by odd characters in the end; all travelling to the Wizard to mend. I peeked out with a loud meow for a chat, what do you wish for kitty, so I had to admit' I want a "there is no place like home" hun, and with you and Toto my life to spend. I was kissed with love not pretend, Dorothy clicked her shoes and it was done; in bed she was sleeping soundly and in her arms I cozy fit, and our precious Toto dog snored on a nearby pretty mat . . . _________________________________ November 6, 2018 Poetry/Rhyme/"There is no place like home" Rhyming pattern- avav/ccc/ddd/abcd/dcba Copyright Protected, ID 18-1083-167-01 All Rights Reserved.

this is super adorable, Constance!! Coming up with things like this so quickly, you are a real WIZ! (I stayed up late working on the story poem and fell to sleep. Woke up and the contest was closed,. Yikes. I can't even find the picture of the girl on the beach so that I can put it with my poem I wrote!)
