It's going to be a good day
Says the field mouse
A discarded hunk of cheese
Spring sun warming
Cotton candy clouds drifting lazy
Hot Minnie leaving her scent
Not a hit of feline

It's going to be a good day
Says the field mouse
To scurry about in wonder
Licking dew off virgin grass
Young legs ready to test the hill
Explore the rodent roundabouts
Little breeze to stir the air

It's a good day to be a mouse
Until the talons gripped
And sent him flying

It's going to be a good day
Says the red-tailed hawk

Saw it coming

We have hawks that like the tree in our back yard.

Though they dine on frogs here.

Nice flow and imaging.

Sick! But even I in my sugar-coated world can appreciate this and its ironic twist. Well done. Made me chuckle in a sick kinda way.
