somthing that wasn\'t there

Something that wasn’t there
Poem by Scott Hartley


Sophia pounced on something that wasn’t there!

 

She did it with such determined flair


It couldn’t have vanished into thin air


She thought: not as far as I am aware


Her tail whipped back and forth something furious

 

And, even though cats are supposed to be curious,

 

I still can’t figure out why she would care


To try to catch something that just wasn’t there
