Beware the Maxie Mouse

Max is a force to be reckoned with. This poem serves as a warning to all who might otherwise underestimate him.



Beware the Maxie Mouse

Cats and dogs take heed my friends
And don’t come near this house
‘Cause if you do you’ll have to deal
With mighty Maxie Mouse

Burglars and thieves take note
Don’t mess with this small guy
‘Cause Maxie Mouse won’t bite you
He’ll lick you ‘til you die

UPS and Fed-Ex men
Risk life and limb each day
Max may choose to let you live
But that’s just for today

Always watchful for the chance
To rescue mom and dad
Maxie Mouse stays vigilant
He’s brave and never bad

And if you come to do us harm
There’s no sense even hoping
You won’t get the drop on Max
He sleeps with both eyes open

Dogs that pass him on his walks
Know better than to try
To come up from behind him
And sniff the Maxie guy

No dog could be tougher
More trusty or more true
The Maxie Mouse is number one
Sheer fierceness through and through
