Hiding on the fridge

Posed like Snoopy’s Red Baron

Waiting to dive bomb.

Wafting through the house

Bringing the senses to life

Magic little beans.

Drifting ‘cross the sky

Morphing into an angel

So soft and wispy.

Perched up in the tree

Mocking all your feathered friends

When you’re not shrieking.

Why you so creepy?

Eyeballs above the water

Giant teeth waiting.

Paw prints on the tile

Mud and water on the rug

Signs of a good time.

Furry little mouse

Squeaking as you’re batted ’round

Thank god you’re not real!
