Magic Device

I think  I need

 a magic device,

to get rid of a horde

of nasty mice.

In my house

mice are everywhere,

 and every mouse

 gives me a dirty stare.

Mouse in the kitchen

 is rather ugly,

 it to eats my cookies

rather smugly.

Mouse in the bedroom

 is very cheeky,

 it sleeps on my bed

 when I am busy.

 Mouse in the garage

 is proud and smart,

 it makes fun of me

when car fails to start.

Mouse in the garden is

cunning and clever,

it wants to live

in my house forever.

I have tried

every trick and treat,

 but every time

 only I had to retreat.

Mice are clever and

  never get caught,

 all my efforts have

 come to a naught.

 Now I think I need

 a magic device,

to get rid of this

horde of nasty mice.
