Magpie #41 Tick Tock

Tick tock tick tock

That tireless clock

It's only demand
Is for my hand

To turn and wind

Be ever so kind

And then it will

Continue to till

The furrows of time

While I write this silly rhyme

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bong bong bong

I skitter along

Closely on the floor

Zipping to a door

I can't get caught

My nerves are taut

With fear I shake

I don't dare make

The slightest noise

As it annoys

That damn cat

looking twice

For cute little mice
