Charlie Sheepdog Has a Scare

Shetland Sheepdog Charlie jumped high in the air Sheep he could handle, but this creature was unfair As far as he knew it was an alien or a creature from far away I was lucky to have my camera that day I wish now I had put it on video, for it was a hilarious sight Charlie ran off and hid, almost into the night The mouse had been scared too, but he was braver now He scuttled in the barn and hid under the cow My children were going to call Charlie names like Scaredy Cat I told them this would hurt him, so please don’t do that One of them wanted to keep the mouse in his room. I scooted the creature out of the barn with a broom.

What a fun poem. A snippet from your own experience I presume. I liked your rhymes and the story flows so smoothly; never interrupted by a glitch in the meter. Thank you for sharing!
