Catch Me If You Can Poem by Jayne Louise Davies

As daybreak came,
The garden, sprang to life with so much vigour,
The birds began their morning song,
Whilst a heron passed by the river.
With beady eye, he searched from high,
For a nice fresh, hearty dish,
Of Koi from the local fish pond,
And get his morning wish.
Ah Ha! He thought,
I spot one there,
A lovely sight to see,
I think I'll take my chances,
There's a nice one there for me.
With one great swoop,
He made the drop,
And patiently he sat,
Only to be greeted,
By the dreaded neighbours cat!
He flew out of there, like a bat out of hell!
In a flash, he was on his way,
Hats off to next doors cat, Bravo!
That's spoiled the rascals day!
