A warning to mice everywhere.
There are mice in the house.
There are mice near and far.
But the latest news is perplexing;
about a mouse in my sisters car.
*
I’m not quite sure how I feel,
although I did for a moment, smile.
Should I fell sorry for the mouse,
or console my sister, awhile?
*
It would be rather daunting,
not knowing what it will do.
It could run across your foot,
or the car wires, decide to chew.
*
There is a trap neatly placed
underneath the front seat.
Place your fingers there
and pain you’ll surely greet.
*
The car door is now left open
in the hope it will escape.
But determined, it stays within;
its fate, it will not abate.
*
Perhaps it was a worthy quest,
to enjoy the thrill of a ride.
Although an unwelcome passenger
destined to continually hide.
*
So although I see no happy end
for this mouse in its car home;
let it be a warning
for mice everywhere, that roam.

Poor mouse – it’ll eventually get into trap. 
I will never ride in your sister’s car. Not that the opportunity may ever arise but I’m just sayin’. Otherwise, cute poem 
Thanks everyone. Larry, that must have been very unnerving while driving. I’m glad to see it didn’t cause an accident – or did it? Either way – I’m very glad you are now ok. AskSan – no problem there, I completely understand.
