SONNET- A poem consisting of 14 lines, 10 syllables in each line

By Allie Fogg



ON THE PROWL



The cat lurks around during the night

It searches and tries to find its dinner

It sees other cats looking to the right

They compete now, who will be the winner?



Who will find all of the mice and rats?

For these would be such a good meal

After all, you know, these are city cats

And these cats finding food is a big deal.



Being out on the streets is no good life

They need owners, someone loving and sweet

Or 2 someone’s, a husband and his wife,

If this happened, it would be such a treat!



But tonight the cats continue to roam

Hoping that someday they will find a home
