''Where's the Broom???''

Where’s the Broom

One day a Witch said in an angry voice,

‘Where’s the broom that I ride?’

Her pet cat said, ‘I don’t know,’

Then she stared at the Witch, her eyes wide,

‘Where did you keep your broom?’

Asked the cat to the Witch,

‘I had kept it in my bedroom,’

Said the Witch, her voice trembling.

‘Then it would surely be in your bedroom.’

‘No, it’s not; I’ve checked my room thrice.’

‘Then it is probably taken away by mice.’

‘Shut up! You are inviting your death!’

But the Witch had become very furious,

So she burnt the revolting cat to ash,

But it was not a long time when she found,

The good deed of the cat lying on the ground!

She realized that the cat was not lying,

As on her broomstick the mice were riding,

So she took the broom from them and wept,

She was full of grief till her heart’s depth!
