I think mice

                                  1
                    Are rather  nice.


                    Their tails are long,


                    Their faces small,

                    They haven’t any

                    Chins at all.

                    Their ears are pink,

                    Their teeth are white,


                    They run about

                    The house at night.

                                     2
                    They nibble  things

                    They shouldn’t touch,

                    And no one seems

                    To like them much.



                    But I think mice


                    Are nice.
