| 4. THE LITTLE MOUSE A mousie sat upon a shelf, Catching fleas in his coat of fur. But he couldn't catch her- what chagrin!- She'd hidden 'way inside his skin. He turned and wriggled, knew no rest, That flea was such a nasty pest! His daddy came And searched his coat. He caught the flea and off he ran To cook her in the frying pan. The little mouse cried, "Come and see! For lunch we've got a nice, fat flea!" --Koleba 1944 Terezin Home | Poem 1 | Poem 2 | Poem 3 | Poem 4 | Poem 5 | Poem 6 | Poem 7 | Poem 8 | Poem 9 |
