Mr Mouse

Mr. Mouse,
Mr. Mouse,
What are you doing,
In my house?

I smell cheese,
yummy cheese!
I would like some,
If you please?

One small bite,
Would bring delight,
Then I will leave,
Without a fight.

No cheese for you.
Just go, get, shoo!
You scared my mom,
And sister, too.

No cheese, in fact,
To stay intact,
You better run,
We have a cat!

Hello Kim Merryman, the mouse should run because the cat will chase the mouse. Enjoy your evening my friend.

Congratulations on your win, Kim! Also on POTD very deserved. Singing nursery rhymes and songs to children as young as babies can help develop their language and communication skills from an early age. Come visit me in my blog Nursery Rhyme 4 - Eve Roper's Blog (poetrysoup.com) Hugs Eve

"You better run, we have a cat!" Very clever indeed. One way to get rid of a mouse. :) This is cute. You should print this and frame it. Congratulations Kim, on Poem of the Day. Your thoughts bring a smile. :) Brandy
