The Day Before Christmas on the Bridge (Part Six 2012)Late summer and a blue-eyed cat goes to the entrance of the Bridge
He has tears in his eyes as he greets his brother
It was only 3 days ago that they shared their birthday
And he never expected to meet his blue-eyed brother so soon
They walk off to a private place to talk
First showing the other new entrants the way
On the day before Christmas
The year has gone so fast ands the cats are still astonished
Things have changed so much with the new technolgy
They now have tv and laptops with mice
And communication across the Bridge is so much easier
There is even a website that some smart cat has devised
Catsondabridge.rbb and am sure it wont be the last
On the day before Christmas
The newer cats are teaching the longtimers
How to use the keyboards and they are learning fast
Its just like being back at home with our humans
We used to write all the time and leave messages for our friends
Do you remember that place called Purrs
Oh yes I loved it there came many replies
On the day before Christmas
A group of excited ginger kittens rush across the field
Mama Cat Mama Cat what is that coming over the hill
Its the trees for decorating says Mama Cat
Go gather all the other kittens ready to climb the trees
The blue eyed boys and their friends bring in the decorations
And start organizing the kittens with a gang for each tree
On the day before Christmas
Excitment on the Bridge is building and the internet is buzzing
Tonight the meowmys will be here and there is loads of work to do
The tables have been put out ready for the food
Trees are sparkling in the sun and presents are being put underneath
The kitchen smells wonderful and the tables all have candles
Cats are rushing around finishing the decorations on the Bridge
On the day before Christmas
A persian cat looks at the horizon and sees the sun going down
He has a tear in his eye as he sees the first star
Whats the matter mayte says a black cat and puts a paw round his friend
I will be so happy to see my meowmy again and wish she could stay
One day my special friend but tonight she will be able to cuddle you
And all the cats will have someone special to meet
On the day before Christmas
I think we are ready comes the message across the Bridge
The cats all look at each other and smooth their fur
Gosh I am nervous says one of the blue eyed boys
A white cat practises her slow blink to a ginger cat
Tabby white feet checks to see if his stripes are aligned
A group of persians gather together in the line
On the day before Christmas
Its time, its time and the cats as one watch the Bridge open
And they all move towards the entrance
As the moon lights the way they see miles of humans on the other side
Every cat has a present and cats who never had a human do now
Electric excitement surges and the the path is open
The stars light up all the smiles and happy tears
On the day before Christmas
