The Adventures Of Maddie The Mouse…dancing Fleas And Beautiful Smelling Cheese Poem by R. K. Hart

Maddie was out shopping with her Mum,
However, Mum was just a little glum.
Mrs Mouse was in her garden picking corn,
You see, yesterday a rose had stuck her with a thorn.
Shopping meant a stop at a shop full cheese,
So full of cheese, full to the brim if you please.
Maddie sniffed here and there at the cheese,
There was one in a bottle that said squeeze.
Maddie squeezed and whoosh, up into the air cheese went,
Cheese covered our little mouse and she fell into the air vent.
As she wiped the dust and cheese from her eyes,
There in the vent was a very odd surprise.
There she saw very dressed up, some dancing fleas,
They were all dancing to a Calvin’s Cockroach Band if you please.
When they saw her, they scuttled quickly away,
Maddie has been to the shop often, but never seen them since that day.
