Mouse House
who out foxed who?....
a fox chases field mice
into the house
mouse invasion....
Normandy, the cat, smacks lips
while on night duty
the sound of vagrants....
two different worlds are living
just floorboards apart
silence of the lambs....
scurrying feet on attic floor
wakes man counting sheep
an angry farmwife...
a carving knife is missing
from the kitchen drawer
a tail-less mouse....
angry rodent chases the
farmer and his wife
three blind-sighted mice
run up the grandfather clock....
grandma reads nursery rhymes
new fangled mouse trap
is set with a piece of cheese...
dinner was a snap
cow jumps over moon....
no creatures were stirring
not even a mouse
