My Barn

By Linda Strong

As I creep across the loft…
the hay falls through the cracks, so quiet and soft.

This barn is my favorite place to be…
as there are lots of them running around…
out in the open where I can see.

These little creatures with their big ears and long tails…
give me something to chase and to catch…
and I rarely fail.

For me they make a great lunch or a snack!
I pounce on them and give ‘em a good smack!

This barn I love so dear…
gives me warmth, shelter, and food that is near.

As a cat, I couldn’t ask for anything more…
as I chase “another” one, that just came in under the door!
