Peter Rats well I can take them or leave them/ I just could not leave this one. great poem cheers Sylvie
Poor thing. I dunno why ppl hate rats, , but they are cool creatures. It's a good one Peter. Nice poem.

Hello, Peter! This is the first poem of yours that I've read, I think. Not much for wild rats, but I share your sympathy for this poor thing. Well-written observation. I will be back for more!
