Captain Cat Free

on they went in the dragon nut shell

through the tides and over the swell,

sword in hand, and courage in heart

together they fought for a land; a start. 

behind them nothing, all long gone,

just sorrow and memories in bard song.

Peace they seek, a place to grow

a Valhalla on Earth to build and sow.

From place to place they scurry and sail,

Captain Black Cat ever on their tail.

Viking mice, from beneath Thor's own throne

determinedly seeking a cat free home.
