On a Sunny Day in Spring
by James Hernandez (age 13)
On a sunny day in spring
I start running down a cold
windy street.
A fast cat shocked me when
he jumped into a huge tree.
He had what looked like a toy
in his mouth.
As I got closer, I saw
what it really was …
That was when a mean dog
ran up to bark at the kitty.
I shooed the dog away,
happy the cat was saved
by jumping to a neighbor.
That was when he dropped
the half-eaten, juicy rat!
