A poem by Oliver Herford

Education

________________________________________________
Title:     Education
Author: Oliver Herford [More Titles by Herford]

When People think that Kittens play,
It's really quite the other way.
For when they chase the Ball or Bobbin
They learn to catch a Mouse or Robin.

The Kitten, deaf to Duty's call,
Who will not chase the bounding ball,
A hungry Cathood will enjoy,
The scorn of Mouse and Bird and Boy.







[The end]
Oliver Herford's poem: Education
