A Song For Jack

Jack, he was a ginger and cream
and oh he was long and lean
with big amber eyes.
Jack was a climber
of great heights.
Beanstalks and curtains
Doorframes and giants,
he scaled them all
to touch the sky.
Jack was a little crazy,
some said insane.
But danger was in his blood
and jumping was his game.
If they said it
couldn't be done,
well Jack he would do it.
Twice just to prove it
and have a little fun.
Jack's fur was peaches and cream,
from head to tail,
he was long and lean
and golden were his eyes.
He never saw anything
too hard or too high
to jump or to climb.
His motto was try or die,
Oh Jackie with the orange stripes....
