Eating In

Snoopy sniffy  little mouse
Scurrying into my little house

Running along the edge of walls
Flash of gray along the halls.

Warm and safe within this house
You think you'll invite your  brother mouse.

Crumbs of food upon the floor
Lots of food behind the door!

The scratchy sound of  tiny paws
The flying tail and bitty claws

The wiggly nose that never stops
Can  smell the goodies  in all the spots.

Silky whiskers wave and flutter
Like flags of safety through the butter
.
Four feet  race along my  kitchen floor
Sounds like NASCAR came through the door.

Downy soft pinkish ears
Hear the screaming and the fear.

So much for 'eating in' for little mouse.
The traps are set  throughout the house.
