My Dream


Mother says we're going away,

But I hope we'll get there sometime today.

My legs are getting rather sore,

I don't think that I'll last much more.

.

She tells us that we're leaving home,

We're trying to escape a cat called Bone.

His leader Scourge is really scary,

He swiftly killed my sister Cherry.

.

I really miss her, but what's done is done.

Soon, I'll get my revenge and he'll be gone.

All the cats of the streets will then say,

'He's saved us all! Hip, hip, hooray!'

.

That's my dream, my one big wish.

To kill the cat who caused all this.

I promise that I will do my best,

To rid the streets, of this big pest.

.

And if I fight him and then die,

At least I'll know that I have tried.

All of the cat of the streets will then say,

'He tried his best! Good on you, Jay!'
