oh no, Jumping Mouse, take care!
Watch your step, be well aware.
Buddy, pause—don’t take that route!
Uh-oh… down the well shoot!
Poof! A print left in the dust,
A perfect shape, a leap gone bust.
But wait—don’t fret, the tale’s not grim,
For fate was watching over him.
Out he climbs, a daring feat,
Tiny paws, so quick, so fleet.
And nearby waits an owl or fox,
Hoping luck might turn the clocks.
Yet Jumping Mouse, so light and spry,
Found his way beneath the sky.
A narrow miss, a thrilling flight—
A story saved by sheer delight!
