Best Mousie Poems


Premium Member Happy Herbie

One for the kiddies or kiddies at heart!




There's a bunch of furry animals

Running around our house

Cats and dogs and ferrets

And even a little mouse!

Now Mom and Dad aren't happy

With mousies running wild

But we love our cute little furry friends

They bring us lots of smiles!

Our mousie plays a pretty fine fiddle

That big folks cannot hear

Unaware of those real happy tunes

Dancing in their ears!

I've named him Happy Herbie

He brings me so much joy

It's hard to think he's really real

He seems like just a toy!

Don't think I want to ever grow up

And lose this special gift

Seeing things through little eyes

In a kiddies world I'm adrift

Premium Member Us Guys Have a Feminine Side

Contrary to popular belief, us guys have feminine side
Sometimes we wear gowns pretending we're blushing new brides
I'm more reserved
Lacking the nerve
At the sight of a wee mousie, I go "eeeek" and hide

Premium Member Game of Cat and Mouse

Oh my goodness! Did you see that???
A mousie riding on the back of a cat

Guess these guys have kissed and made up
Heard mousey yell “Hey! Giddy-up!”

Great to see them getting on so well
Mousey's relieved, as you can tell

Wearing a big grin from ear to ear
Felix is enjoying it too, it appears

Remember this lesson from one time rivals
Don't need no conflicts for survival

It's a whole lot better to laugh and have fun
Than face extinction at the point of a gun

So what did you learn from this sweet wee tale?
Enjoy yourself and drink lots of ale

You'll see little mousies and cats at play
Instead of killings on TV each day!

Premium Member Fun Marathon Poetry Inspired by Robert Burns

Quiet as a mousie studying the route
Praying proper prep is not in vain
The best laid plans of marathoners
       Might lead to disarray
Race day ending in grief and pain
       At the expense of joy!

Morning Mousie

‘Morning, mousie in the housie
Puss’s got the munchies
For yummy little crunchies –
You’d best be on your way

Rev ‘em up, your little pawses,
Cat’s relentless, never pauses
It’s just his nature and that’s because he’s
Been cravin’ mousie-pie all day

Little mouse, I’ve got a hunch
Puss-cat thinks your name is lunch
He’ll reduce you to a furry bunch
Of gristle, bones and clay

So, little rodent, if you’re smart
You’ll get yourself a good head-start
Pussie’s got his feline heart
Set on eating after play

Premium Member More Than a Soft Toy

My nephew had a grey Mousie,
When he was a small boy.
He took it everywhere with him,
His precious mouse soft toy.

If Pete became upset would cry,
I want my Mousie now.
And with his thumb in his mouth,
With Mousie settled down.

This Mousie was a soft grey toy,
Given to nephew Pete.
When he was just a babe in arms,
No other could compete.

Pete loved his Mousie very much,
But due to wear and tear.
Mousie began to disappear,
But Pete he did not care.

And over years poor Mousie lost
His stuffing and was flat.
Yet Pete still carried it around,
A scrap of this and that.

Until the only piece of him,
Was just a little ear.
But to young Pete his Mousie was
His comfort, loved so dear.

Now Pete’s a man, but can recall,
When he was just a boy.
His favourite toy was Mousie,
That gave him so much joy.


My Mousie

she is so special to me
she lifts me up when i'm down
she always wants me to come around
she says together we can be free

i listen to her when she needs an ear
i leave my frustration at the door
and the fun we have chasing each other 
around the floor
together nothing can come between us 
and never to fear

when she is feeling down and alone
she knows she can lean on me
she can call me on the phone
when she is right she makes me see

i love my mousie
any way 
i love her so 
cant count the ways
i know that i will 
always stay 
with my 
mousie

Some wear gowns pretending they're blushing brides

Lacking the nerve
But at the sight of a wee mousie, I'm mortified

Premium Member Kitten

I simply adore my gorgeous li’l kitten,
I’m besotted, in fact I’m totally smitten.

With piercing blue eyes and snowy white fur,
when I stroke Alana I hear her loud purr.

Alana’s fur is as soft as finest Chinese silk,
and her tiny pink tongue just loves to lap milk

A fun scratching post sits by the back door,
her pink bowl and litter box are on the floor.

I’ll watch her play with her clockwork mouse,
Alana chases her ‘mousie’ all over the house

When she gets tired she curls up on my lap,
Soon we’re both fast asleep as I love to cat nap!

Premium Member The Sex Life of An Armadillo

Here it is... gonna pour it all out
no holding back, better sit yourself down
be prepared, this is going to be so juicy
you'll be squirming and perspiring
and breathing heavily from all your outlets
okay, must pause for a bit
to wipe off my keyboard and my wee mousie
sorry... there... now, where was I?
Oh yes, I was starting to tell youse all
about the sex life of an armadillo
you see... no that wasn't it!!!
was going to tell you all about the
mysteries of life that I've discovered
in my many long years as a passionate
and a long time stud... uh student of nature
forgive me I get carried away at times
with my own countenance
had to destroy all the mirrors in the house!
was about to tell you about the *****(censored)
silly me eh... well going to feed my armadillo!
Now did you enjoy that?
Bet you're squirming!!!

Premium Member My 1st gift to Mom

A clear-beaded mousie
with a pointy black nose,
twitchable beaded tail,
and ruffly yellow clothes.

The tail can tilt her head--
she nods without a squeak!
Quiet little church mouse,
I bought from a boutique.
