Mice & Men

All my life I fought at,
not being a rat.
Born a baby unknowing,
what if a mouse was showing?
I would have never known,
I was a baby,
not yet grown.


Grown into adulthood,
still trying not to insult good.
I love cheese,
no rat please!
I do the best I can,
I am only a man.


Age strongly distinguishes,
maturity surely relinquishes.
Of mice and men,
I'm far from the rodent den.
But I still love cheese,
so at times,
I sail the seven seas.


G

G ,
it took a brave heart to write this orignal piece.
We as men , always stating how courageous we are
but it isn't always about that .
As yOU HAVE pointed out , very artisticly, men also like cheese
too....i know i do!
peace',
