The Mouse Saved Her



Mesmerizing,
A Tantalizing scream,
A Heart thundering storm.
Over and under
She smiled at her dress’s seam.
Whistling often,
Not soft spoken.
A climbing disaster,
It’s falling faster.
A squeak,
A peep,
A squeal.
She fainted at
The sight of a mouse
As lightning did peel.
She was caught
By a handsome mate,
She reeled in her breath fast,
Opened her mouth at last.
“Did you see it?
It squeaked,
It peeped,
I squealed.”
A mass of broken
Hearts caught
Her falling.
She looked up
To see her
Man calling.
“What are you talking
About dear?
I thought you were
Hit by lightning.”
“Oh no,” She said smiling,
“The mouse saved me.”
