Now, read the poem.

                                         I think mice

                                         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.


                                         They nibble things

                                         They shouldn’t touch

                                         And no one seems                                 What do you do
                                                                                          when you see mice
                                         To like them much                                in your house?
                                                                                                        Let’s connect
                                         But I think mice

                                         Are Nice.



                                                           —Rose Fyleman





          nibble: to take small bites
          out of something
