Marc O'Brien Poet Rhyme

A Cheesy Situation

There was a mouse 
Freezing in the house 
Reason for the cold 
His spouse was never told 
About the tease 
Holding the keys 
To the cabinet filled with cheese 
Now this tease 
Did as she pleased 
Holding the Swiss 
Hostage from the Mouse’s Miss 
“I am not your Miss!!” 
Conversed the spouse with a hiss  
“Remember when I gave you a commitment kiss?” 
Reflecting on the time 
And nothing to decline
Realizing she had too much wine 
Not one of his lines  
Deciding to confront the tease 
Doing as she please 
Holding hostage the cheese 
“I do not know who you are 
Wanting to be a star 
Sitting at the bar?” 
Now the tease did not take this too well 
That she did not ring his memory bell 
“I have the cheese 
And I do as I please” 
She walked away 
Still having the cheese on her tray 
Knowing things in his relationship were not okay 
Returning the mouse 
Found an empty house 
You see the spouse 
Left the mouse 
Grabbing the wine 
Going to dine 
With the tease 
Holding the keys 
To unlock the cheese 
As for the lonely mouse 
No longer having a spouse 
He found the couch 
Relaxing in a slouch 
Then suddenly screamed,
“Ouch!” 
In truth it was a kitten 
Being quite smitten 
“It was time to get out”
Stated the spouse in a pout 
“You’re safe with me,” 
Gleamed the tease in glee 
“No cats around
And we have the only cheese in town!”
