Here is our final poet who responded to their original work:
Cats
Cats pounce about,
So nice and keen,
But when they see a single bug,
There eyes get a vicious gleam.
They wiggle their little behinds,
And crouch down to spring,
But nothing they do can reach the flying bugs,Yes, not a thing.
So they jump,
And leap,
And say in their little kitty speak:
“Get that bug! It’s right over the jug!
The one with the water!”
But the cats try, all they can,
Until one of their daughters says:
“Listen now, we could reach it,
If we can use teamwork and persistence,
Then we’ll teach it!”
And then erupts a mighty cat cheer!
While the bug,
Trembles in fear.
They jump, and bounce,
one tries a little kitty pounce,
But nothing reaches the small bug.
They form a cat ladder, and make quite the clatter,
Bringing in the little kids trampoline.
They pounce, then bounce,
And reach the bug!
The cats give off a cheer,
Their persistence and teamwork paid off,
So remember,
Next time you see a moth,
You can always get a friend to help you.

Cats By Xander
Cats is my poem about a clatter of cats on a quest to kill a small bug that’s on the ceiling, so doing something ridiculously stupid because a small fly is on the ceiling and cats don’t have wings, so yey, purrfect oppurrtunity (heh, heh, purring jokes) anyway, in this response I will tell you three different things in my poem, tell you how I meant for them to be and how they are through the creator’s eyes.
So there you have it! 3 things in my poem Cats that I did not intend to be like that but whatever, how the cats are described, how the cats cheer but when you think about it you realise they are just meowing, and the cats dragging in the trampoline, I actually made this poem myself and really like it, because cats, I also have a few more that I typed up and printed out, I would like to recommend this poem to anyone who likes cats and funny poems.
