The Magnificent Mouse, A Poem-Story
~ The Magnificent Mouse ~
Fiction
A minuscule, humble mouse
wrote much poetry.
Her eyes, so very tired, she
almost could not see.
Each day, mouse scribbled out
her heart’s melodious song.
For five years she did this,for
hours, far, far too long!.
Her poetry, she hoped, people
would hopefully like.
That was her mistake, this all
too trusting, poet-tyke.
She fell ill, quite weak and lost
her will to write.
She felt great peace now and
bright, inner mouse might.
Mouseland, her country,was made
great fun of too.
She was proud of that poetry land.
under her sparkling,lyrical, shoes.
So mouse gave up writing where
her ideas were not wanted.
In her new home, she was well read,
accepted, and her joy was undaunted!
