What could be better
than a field full of mice?
A stream full of fish
could be just as nice.
A wide open field
where a cat could play.
Grasses so green
I could eat them all day.
How busy I would be
but when all is said and done
I could curl up and nap
and bathe in the sun.
Oh, how splendid
this dream may be
until I awake to
my imprisoned reality.
