Dear Mr. Mouse

Published on by Susi Bocks
Inspired by Sadje’s What do you see #39, Eugi’s Weekly Prompt – Neighbors, &
VJ’s Weekly Challenge #105 – Quotation

Hey, neighbors, I see you there in my cabinets,
rummaging and sniffing out your next meal.
But I don’t remember inviting you.

You’re really cute with that beautiful shade
of soft-looking brown. That tiny little nose,
itsy-bitsy ears, and long tail you drag behind.

But have I mentioned, it’s not very neighborly
of you to dine on my food without a “may I”,
then leaving your droppings as a gift?

“A good neighbor is a fellow who smiles at you over the back fence, but doesn’t climb over it.” Arthur Baer

“All will concede that in order to have good neighbors, we must also be good neighbors. That applies in every field of human endeavor.” Harry S. Truman

    1. LOL No, they don’t! Sadly, completely experienced and pretty extensive too. We’ve had to find all the ways they were getting in, lay traps and lose a lot of food in the process! Once they got in, it was difficult to rid ourselves of them. I guess it’s a trade off for living in the country. 🙂
