The second mouse gets the cheese.

I am a mouse
I live in a house

No one lives here
except for me

I live in an empty
can of ginger beer

I am so full of life, just
so merry living here

Hmm I'm hungry
I need to appease
my tummy

yummy, yummy
I see cheese, it looks
so scrummy!

Ready, steady, I’m off
to fill my tummy

MMMMMMMMMMM!
such magnificent…

“SNAP!?!”

…chee’

Dear Andy, lovely analogy. We all are trapped in a mouse trap because of our hunger for cheese. Love Emile

Twitches in one's gut should not lead to regrettable actions of impulse. Andy a proper dandy shared. As for myself I shall continue to subscribe to Johnson's theorem, which states - "Murphy(of Murphy's law) was a blooming optimist". Tongue in cheek with a cheesy twist Andy. I enjoyed it my friend. May health and peace be with you. Jon Michael

give me my cheese, or I'll knock you to your knees, good humorous one Andy, see we all have a little mouse in us, one of my wifes nick names is mickey mouse, she hated it at first but no longer complains.
I nicked named her this because she has this crazy fear of little tiny mice, take care

oh I know it is a cruel world out there...
they like peanut butter better
living in the country I am a snap pro (shhhhh...)
However when they nest in my garden
I relocate Mom & babes...

You are in rare form,my friend. Let us just say, he who get's trapped deserves it's fate. I always strive for trap free living...lol

Very whimsy poetry, Andy.

So exciting, clever, amusing ~
This is full of fancy but little by little it turns blood-stained dark! It seems to be about an innocent being who can't wait to go on their adventure, very positive, rosy-cheeked, but then unexpectedly dies on the journey.
Some heart-healing needed for that mouse!
Be well, blessings,
Christine

Thank you for sharing your ditty, Andy. You've inspired me:

There once was a mouse in a house
This truly frustrated the spouse
Along came Andy
And all was dandy
When he threw the mouse in the souse

Sorry 'bout that. Just couldn't resist. Love and peace,

Regis
