CATS  EYES

Does it have nine lives, cats’ eyes,

On All Hallows’ Eve, a black cat hides and watches.

With eyes all a glow, it stalks you,

Legend has it that on this night, stay from its path.

Cursed with evil from a feline’s contact,

Strolls in silence through this dark October night.

With an angry hiss, teeth shown with a warning,

Strike it will, suddenly with speed, claws upon you.

Cat’s eyes under a full moon, you’ll maybe find,

Swiftly disappears into a windy Fall night.
