The Power Of Prayer : Inspirational Poetry

A mouse was in the kitchen ,
my wife had just come in .
The baby started crying, all I could do was grin .
By the door there stood a broom that I took in my hand .
My wife then spied the mouse and screamed ,
"Mice I just can't stand!"
I knew how to trap it and began to chase it out ,
but no matter how calm I was she could only shout !
"Get it out of the kitchen . Get it out of the house!"
There was I running around trying to catch this mouse .
Through the room with a broom
I pulled all the cupboards bare .
The mouse was so quick it had gone ,
each time I got there ,
to where it was and it near got the better of me ,
as I started to pull the house apart ,
on my knee ,
I said a prayer ,
"God help me to get rid of this mouse"
Just at that the mouse calmly walked
right out of the house !
