In a Kingdom, far away Lived a kindly King named Ron He hardly ever left his castle Because his ‘puter was always on But one day this Kingly gent Thought a vacation would be nice So he left his worldly possessions In the care of his servant mice. Tis often thought that mice Will eat till the cupboards are clear But these mice, well-fed and content Told King Ron not to fear “We promise to be good kind sir, we won’t make even a small mess We’ll turn off the lights, put out the cat We won’t cause you distress!” The King (a trusting man you see) Agreed to leave them in control And merrily went on his way As the mice peeked from their hole. The minute the King was out of sight All hell broke loose in the house Chandelier swinging, banister sliding And a beer for every mouse! Loud, drunken mice ran rampant Painted the walls a sickly hue And turned the castle upside down To orange from royal blue They ate, they danced, they caroused Till all hours of the night There was screaming, there was laughter I think there was even one fight! Passed out in drunken heaps snoozing Their passions spent, hunger at bay When King Ron rode up to the gate This was his homecoming day! King Ron opened his front door And much to his surprise Saw all his faithful servant mice Mouths agape, gathering flies “What goes on here” King Ron asked “What mischief have you wrought?” The mice jumped up guiltily Embarrassed that they’d been caught All blame was passed from mouse to mouse Til no one really knew The first to set the plan afoot In the castle colored blue “Twas me,” said Mouse deVine “Twas my idea to egg them on I thought we needed a little fun I apologize King Ron” “You must be punished, deVine” Said the King with a glare “So I’m going to tie you down right here beside my chair You will be my personal slave Do my bidding night and day You will have much work to do And no time for silly play” Mouse deVine accepted her fate Knowing he would forget her in awhile So she sat down next to King Ron With a secret smile  |

This so cute. I think this was a cute idea. But I must say you could have picked better colors. But a change once in awhile is a good thing. Poetry is beauty in words. |

Oh Poet deVine I'm so glad its upon Your head where will fall the wrath of Ron. We will all run like the rats we are, And take no blame as we watch from afar. But it has been fun. Joyce |

I think you did a great job of keeping the place while he was gone, and I am sure you will get another chance one day. We are not done "funning him" yet! Glad to see you all used your sense of humor to a great use in his absense, and I am sure he enjoyed all this as much as you are. |

Thank you all for joining in the fun! Sometimes we all need to just relax and kick up our heels. With all the distress and tension in our daily lives and in the world, it's not good to be SO serious all the time. Smile at least once a day...life is too short not to enjoy it!!  Thank you Ron...for everything. |
