House Of Mice

Mice are animals that are found nearly everyone on this planet. But at some places... they are the ruling species.

My home is not very nice

rather call it "House Of Mice"

You can see them, roaming about

or just in a group, hanging out.

 

Little nose, twinkling eyes

In every wall, their hole lies

In silent room, hear them squeak

Then and Now, at you they peek

 

Vegetables, Toast, Fruits and meat

On everything, they like to feast

Phone book, shoes, soaps and letter

they digest every matter

 

In every fabric, they make holes

Trousers, socks, Shirts and Strolle

In strength, they are very rich

they take away a whole sandwich

 

They open boxes and containers

they steal my knives and strainers

They break and rock the whole house

A whole army,  like Jerry mouse

 

They climb on your head

while you are sleeping

From cupboard to cupboard

you see them leaping

 

They take with them, all our mittens

They are bigger than little kittens

A new specie of Domestic Rats

I saw them, one day, hunting a cat!

 

To poison, their stomach is immune

Like they have some heavenly boon

On whistling cooker,

they try to ride

In boiling soup,

they try to suicide

 

Mice - Mice, everywhere

It has become a nightmare

So, I arrange a worship tray

and to God, Now I pray,

 

'Let it continue in next life

but next time, with a different case,

Let mice be men, owner of the house,

Let me be mouse, who rules the place.'

Author's Note

.. based on personal experience. These little creatures are really tiring.

This was an enjoyable little jaunt through one of your life's experiences. If you are interested in pointers as to how you can hone your poetic skills, I could show you with this cute little poem how to do that. You may or may not be aware of the rules of poetry, which are many. When I was learning someone helped me and I appreciated the pointers.

I wrote a poem about a mouse once. It isn't nearly as great as this one. Good job!!!
