Shady Cat and the Shiny Ball

This entry is part 10 of 10 in the series Shady Cat

Shady Cat and the Shiny Ball

The wind pushed at the tree and

Shady Cat was up late chasing shadows.

One in particular was quick and lively,

flicking through the grass,

jumping potted plants,

racing over rock and earth

So fast was the shadow that Shady Cat had to

run faster and jump higher than as she ever had in her whole life

Two times she caught it! Then a third!

But every time it slipped through her paws!

Finally it raced up a very tall tree.

The tree was so tall it, was taller than all the houses.

Shady Cat did not wait but ran right up the tree.

Shady Cats are very good climbers,

and not afraid of heights at all.

The tree was not only tall, it had a hundred branches

and a thousand leaves.

So full was it that Shady Cal lost the shadow,

but at the very top found a bright shiny ball!

It looked so fun she swatted at it until

it fell in the branches. She swatted it again

and it rolled from branch to branch, bouncing

and dancing its way down the tree!

All round thousands upon thousands upon thousands

of shadows flickers across the world while

Shady Cat chewed happily on the moon.
