Patricia Lawton Poet Rhyme

I,S,A,M

I Saw A Mouse.

There's a mouse in the corner by the bathroom door.
I'm sure it's the same one I saw the night before.
With his cute pink round ears and his whiskers askew
we'll nab him  and catch him before our cat see's him to.

We'll find him a new home somewhere outdoors
and keep him safe from our moggies claws.
I know there's a hollow in our big old oak tree.
We shall make him a nest so it's safe he shall be.

For if our moggy sees him he will kill him no doubt.
He will chase him until that poor mouse heart gives out.
So yes, come it's up to you and me
to make him a nest in our big old oak tree.

Patricia Lawton April 17, 2017 at 6:41 AM Can you believe this actually happened when I was a small child and I never forgot the only sad thing was we couldn't catch the poor wee thing cause my mum was chasing it with her sweeping brush. cruel mum. Haa aah.
