Lily had a funny cat <br />His name was Bob <br />And he was fat. <br /> <br />He had 3 legs, <br />His tail was bent, <br />She took him <br />Everywhere she went. <br /> <br />He liked the car, <br />He liked the bus, <br />He traveled well, <br />He was no fuss. <br /> <br />One day she took him <br />On a boat <br />That day she learned <br />That Bob could float. <br /> <br />He saw a fishy <br />Swimming by <br />He dove right in- <br />And that is why <br /> <br />He’ll never ride <br />A boat again, <br />He gets his fishies <br />From a can. <br /> <br />(2005)<br /><br />Linda Coker<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/bob-cat/
