The True Tale Of Mr. Peaches The Rat Poem by Bill Grace

The True Tale Of Mr. Peaches The Rat

Rating: 5.0


The docent who put the madigascar cockroaches
Through the washer and dryer that lived
Gave us sage advice when to girbel or not to girbel
Was the question of the day.
The rat he informed made a vastly better pet.

So the cute little mousie type became the rat
And joined the corporation of corgy and company
with all of its accompanyment of three cats.

The docent's analysis was true
A critter presence I do not rue
Which is quite a confession from the farm boy
Who once found them such fun to shoot.

The magic here is not alone Disneys
No love for its tail have I
But the truth is this unthinkable's a pet
With a personality that can be a pest
I will let your imagination do the rest
The rascal will probably be with us
Until the day that he dies.
