The Game
Reading edition
Watching a ball on the end of a string, Watching it swing back and to, Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing Ever a Kitten can do. First it goes this way, then it goes that, Just like a bird on the wing. And all of a tremble I crouch on the mat Like a Lion, preparing to spring. And now with a terrible deafening mew, Like a Tiger I leap on my prey, And just when I think I have torn it in two It is up in the air and away.
