Hero and Missy

Hero and Missy

A little song about Hero and Missy
A pair of kitties living in a barn in Bisbee.
Missy catches mice around the cornfield,
Hero rests while his foot is healed.


Prowlin' at night while the moon is behind the clouds,
Missy crouched beneath the corn leaves, looking wide-eyed under the shroud.
Hero prowled toward Missy, scaring up the little morsel,
Chasing it toward its end, dividing it up without being forceful.          


Me-ow, kitties, the hunt goes on,
Day after day, until they catch that ol' swan.
Me-ow, kitties, the hunt goes on.
