The Fisherman's Lament

Sailing across the ocean blue  Singing shanties with my merry crew We cast our nets into the briny waters To provide for our wives, sons, and daughters. But when are nets grew heavy and taut We heaved them up to see what we caught. And what did our accursed eyes behold? Fish with scales that glistened like gold. We cheered as our nets burst at the seams. We were rich beyond our wildest dreams! But my heart quickly sank to the sea floor As I recalled the warning we got days before. “Should you ever catch fishes of gold Remember the ancient warnings of old: Release them and don’t be slaves to greed Lest you anger the Merfolk with a selfish deed.” With heavy heart, I reminded my crew Of the solemn warning from Old Ms. Rue. They laughed and said, “It’s just an old wives tale!” And our captain said, “Homeward we sail!” I warned them that this was a foolish deed But my voice was one they chose not to heed.

The Cat Chef



The Cat Chef is one of the best chefs around.

Heavenly foods for cats always abound!

She puts mice in dough and beats them dead,

To make warm fluffy loaves of buttery mice bread.


Dropping mice in boiling pots of milk, catnip, and cream,

She makes the most delicious stew a cat could ever dream.

She fries mice tails seasoned with salt, pepper, and spice,

And makes a side of catnip sauce and soft white rice.


She makes roasted rabbits, each with an apple stuffed in their mouth,

Their sweet aroma draws every cat from the north and south.

She makes whisker-licking good chicken with a side of honeydew,

It’s so tasty it makes even the most feral cats mew.


She makes biscuit wraps filled with anchovies and flounder.

You are welcome to stuff yourself, but you may become rounder.

And the dessert, oh the dessert, what a wonderful sight,

The tastiest and most salivating sugary delights!


Blueberry frozen yogurt and mice cheesecakes,

Chunks of salmon sprinkled on foaming milkshakes!

Fish and rodent jellies and puddings with gumdrops,

Pumpkin pies, and vanilla ice cream with tuna heads on top!


The Cat Chef uses the best ingredients,

From chipmunks to sea trout,

So hurry, grab her treats at once, 

Before she runs out!
