Greedy RAT

by Alexandra aged 11

It all started in a ruined house,
Which never saw a single mouse.
But on a sunny summer day,
Two clever mice stopped for a stay.
They thought they’ll stay just for one night,
As it was very warm, they liked.

Next day, they started with a pray,
Then started t’ look for food,
Or anything that could be chewed.
The day flew by
And then the weeks,
Until the family was six!

Four little hungry mice
And only one was looking nice.
But despite that he was so fat,
He started being greedy RAT.

All day alone, he ate a lot.
Was never scared to be caught.
His weight was doubling every week,
As well he learned a fight technique.

But even this didn’t help him,
Because he couldn’t ever swim.
It was a storm on a rainy day,
A river washed the mouse away.

Since then, no one had seen the mouse.
Not even his mother or his brothers.
No matter how in life you are,
Your family, it is your star.
They give you birth and all your life,
Will direct you with proper guide.
