Larry, The Rat

Larry the rat

Had a hat

With shades of black

Was that a red?

I can't remember

And there was a cat

They called him Jack

A look at his back

A little fat

Always making traps

Always looking for rats

Larry the mouse

Had a house

And after all

It was in the ground

But he wasn't happy

He wanted to leave and find some more

If you were there you could hear

The sound of their little paws

To the floor softly touching your ears

Wishful to sense

The warming Sun

On his nose, tail

Whiskers and fur

Coming out of his house a lightning from eye contact

So he knew in fact

Larry the rat

You have no time to regret

Trembiling got shivers down spine

After all cats have to dine
