Cat in the tree? a Dr. Seuss moment

The place where we live

has many tall treesAnd when I look out

To see what I see,

I may see some jays

screeching in the trees.

I may see a hawk,

or perhaps a magpie.

It's true, it's true!

I do not lie.

But there was a day

Not so long ago,

When I looked out my window

And a surprise I did see.

A cat in the tree? Oh,

how could this be?

Oh, look, look and see-

It really, oh really is,

a cat in a tree!
