A Mouse With A Mouth





strutting and preening inspector john quin
in uniform medals and neat as a pin

a swivel eyed looney jigging away
with a lady in white he may have his way

but alas there's a problem quite matter of fact
the lady in question owns a big furry cat

    You painted a character so perfectly with your words. The rhyming is brilliant and adds a light touch to an uncharming character.
