Poetry Day #27
Today our prompt was to write a review of something that would normally not be reviewed – I thought of several things, and will keep them as fodder for more poems – I don’t think I will quit writing when May 1 get here!
Haiku
A little brown mouse
Eludes us for weeks on end
Who is the smart one?
The Dealership Mouse
Our dealership mouse made an appearance recently
He sat right in my office looking up at me without a care in the world
He is very clever and his confidence is apparent in each move he makes
A flamboyant creature to watch as he maneuvers through the room
Hoisting up his fat little body while simultaneously engaging his feet
He is not the quickest mouse you’ve ever met
But he is perhaps the most confident
He flaunts authority daily by leaving his deposits all around the trap
Yet never falling prey to our futile attempts to get rid of him
He is both annoying and adorable all at the same time
As I watch this saga unfold I am finding myself cheering
More often for the mouse and rarely for we lesser humans
