Hi I am Mary and my cat is Bill

who’s green and fat but never ill

he loves to talk and can’t sit still

and often colors to get his fill

drawing pink penguins and orange

dolphins of each both had a million

cousins I said

“who could imagine that…such a funny cat!”  

“but it’s easy,” Bill replied without fear

“all you need is hold what’s dear”

so don’t be shy do have a try

you owe yourself to reach the sky

but if you think that can’t be done

don’t be silly…it’s lots of fun!

Moral: being silly is OK; learn to manage shyness
