"Come down and play" said pussy cat Bill
Licking his lips in glee
"I cannot come down" said Buttercup Bright
For you will surely eat me.
"I would never do that" said pussy cat Bill
crossing his tail as he spoke
"I am not even hungry" he said
"For I have just awoke"
"Well just for a little while"
said Buttercup Bright to the cat
Then I will have to be going
very shortly after that.
Down she flew, and quick he pounced
his mouth was opened wide
Quick she jumped, and fast she dashed
under his belly to hide.
Pussy cat Bill flipped and flopped
as Buttercup Bright held on to his fur
"It was only a game" he cried
But Buttercup Bright believed him no more
Quick as a flash she was up in the sky
Flying as fast as she could go
and pussy cat Bill, with a tear in his eye
watched his fairy dinner go
"She would have been fine as my dinner
with potatoes or even with peas
How rude of her not to stay
and agree to be my tea."
