Tracks All night long, the falling snow Covered up the world we know. From my window, at first light, All is calm, pristine and white. In my rock wall I can see, There's a hole stares back at me. From it, looping out and back, Tiny feet have left a track. Could it be a small, gray mouse, Trying to invade my house? Did he venture out to know How it feels to walk on snow? I wish I'd been awake to see When he left this trail for me!

This is a cute little story. We are having some crazy weather. Snow last night but it's gone now. I guess they've had lots more in the southern part of the state. Joyce |

Joyce: Thanks! We have had snow for three days, but not today so far. Made a trip out for groceries this morning in case there's more. I don't know what made the little tracks, but I suspect a mouse or a shrew. Very tiny feet anyhow! Betty Lou Hebert |

Denise: Thanks for commenting. I think mice are cute too, as long as they're outside. Can't stand having one in the house! We have cats so it's been a long time since that's happened. Betty Lou Hebert |
