Mystic Rose Rose Poet Free verse

Guess What ? I Have Internet !

I am a mouse and I can hide most anywhere 
behind your walls I sleep and snore 
like a little squiggly tot without a care 
I am a mouse and I don't care who knows it

I am a mouse who loves to nest and burrow 
inside a cluttered house quite often ignored  
like the fluffy dust settled beneath your table 
I am a mouse with a passion for cables    

I am a mouse with a slightly pointed nose
often I avoid your traps and poisoned bait   
eating most anything you leave behind  
I am a mouse and I live like a Sovereign King 

inside your basement, behind the cabinet, I found 
an old cel phone and guess what?... I got internet !

thriveni c mysore July 21, 2024 at 9:49 PM Humorous write dear poet friend. 'I am a mouse with a slightly pointed nose' yet avoiding the human tricks of deceptions. Congratulations. Happy writing.

David Crandall July 21, 2024 at 9:01 PM Great poem Mystic Rose - I'm a mouse and I don't care who knows it!

Heidi Sands July 21, 2024 at 8:15 PM Congratulations for your win. Enjoy :)

Matt Caliri July 20, 2024 at 8:55 PM Congrats on 4th place out of 35 entries in my contest! I know, Mystic Rose, you are no stranger to winning in my contests so I obviously enjoy your approach. The internet at the end was hilarious and such great social commentary where even a mouse's highest priority is gaining internet access. Hitting on big comedy as well as poetry points. You can almost see it as New Yorker comic strip.

Marikate Kingston June 19, 2024 at 7:04 PM Somehow we survived a wolrd without the internet, although I don't know how. I saw a funny quote the other day, it read, "Respect your parents they graduated without google" I enjoyed your poem's double entendre, it was so clever and fun to read, Mystic

Jay Narain June 18, 2024 at 10:38 AM Nice poem. Who needs internet? Mystic Rose Rose June 18, 2024 at 3:45 PM I can certainly do without for great lengths of time lol but do need it, :)

Victor Buhagiar June 18, 2024 at 7:22 AM A very clever poem. Can we survive without the internet? Loved your poem. Mystic Rose Rose June 18, 2024 at 3:45 PM Not totally Victor but only we can decide how much is enough for us :)

Ink Empress June 18, 2024 at 12:26 AM Perfect! Without internet, i wonder what would be the world like. Sweet rose your take on this is so clever and witty too! Made me smile! Soul warming to read this fun and poetic write. Best wishes for the contest. Sending you light Mystic Rose Rose June 18, 2024 at 3:22 AM without internet the world would be more human and less A I reliant, we'd talk to each other and mirror each other's souls, and live as one. Now wouldn't that be nice. Sharing the light with you dear Ink Queen of Site :)
