I'd do anything to, I would! &quot;</div><div style="margin:10px 0">As the cat ran ahead he couldn't help but think: <br> &quot;There's no way that the mouse can pass me! &quot;<br>I got ahead in an eye's blink! <br> Why don't I settle down for a nap? <br>I have to run only one more lap, <br>I can rest my eyes for just a little while, <br>Mouse probably hasn't even run half a mile! <br>There don't seem to be any chances<br>Of mousie passing me, I'll win, I'll win! &quot;<br>And he made quite a din.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">The cat settled down in the shade, <br>Of a tree in a peaceful glade.<br>He slept soundly, till the mouse had gone on ahead<br>While the cat was snoozing on his primrose bed! </div><div style="margin:10px 0">When the cat finally rose, it was just too late! <br> And though he ran fast (in a bedraggled state.) <br>He just couldn't make it, the mouse had got the lead<br>And crossed the finish line (leaving the cat in defeat! !) <br>The mouse had won, he'd proved Cat wrong, <br>Who walked away, singing a mournful song: <br>&quot;I was boastful and full of myself, it's true<br>And now I've lost the race, I don't know what to do! <br>I'm sorry that I looked at mouse with scorn! &quot;<br>And the cat traipsed by, looking forlorn.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">&quot; Dear Cat, you're looking blue, &quot;<br>Said the mouse, &quot;I feel sorry for you.<br>How about we divide the Poppy field<br>Between us, one half for me, the other for you? &quot;</div><div style="margin:10px 0">And of course the cat agreed! <br>He'd learned a lesson indeed! <br>&quot;Slow and steady wins the race.&quot;<br>Said the mouse, in first place....</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by  - <i><a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/" target=_blank></a></i><div class=q>

An argument arose
In the poppy field
Next to the red rose

It was between the mouse and the cat
(No worse enemies existed than that!) 
In the end they had a bet
Whoever won, he would get
The poppy field for his own to live in
