I was absorbed with my writing
At my computer
I noticed a small dark shadow
By my feet
Moving slowly like a ball of dust
Caught in a wind stream
at floor level
Floating aimlessly in the air
When I focused down
It was a tiny mouse
I don't fear mice
So I sarcastically asked him
What's up Dude, are you lost?
He replied, yes hungry too
At that time I was feeding my face
With a delicious raisin muffin
I placed a crumb near him
He ate it, thanking me
I said, you are quite welcome
little buddy
I held a raisin, as he nibble at it
He said, I really appreciate this
I was starving
Inquiringly I asked him
Where do you live at?
With a tear in his eyes, he replied
My mommy
Just chased me out of our nest
She said, I had to fend for myself
Well I said,
And doing great you are
He we are
You me and the computer
You are welcome to stay
As long as you stay out of sight
And my wife's way
She's not like me
You mess with her, she'll show you
The light of truth
What is that, little Dude asked?
Well, for us it's the pearly gates
For you
Would be Disney Land.

I had a mouse around myself recently. I haven't heard him scurrying around lately. I hope he's alright. Live and let live. Great poem.
