I dumped my coat and bag
gingerly, so gingerly I walked to a stray silky cat
in the classroom,I  tiptoed away
from the cat who stared at me
with beaming green eyes.

Suddenly, everyone stopped and stared
the cat stunk like a pig.
The board froze in surprize,
even the teacher stared in fear

The cat became friendly
it gasped when it saw a mouse
There was a silence
Everyone stared and walked away!
