The day was hot and cloudless,

When a little kitten from Opuss,

She took in the word-built skylines,

And peered at the letter-filled gold mines,

Her paw prints left a crumb-trail,

As she turned at last to her own tale:

She looked at her home and shed a tear,

And wished it could be like Opussia here,

For in this kitten's real life,

The world was ragged, edged like a knife,

In Feather's own world it wasn't pretty,

Here she'd never be a thriving kitty,

Feather nosed her covers and slipped into sleep,

Where at least here she could in Opussia keep.
