The Mice Told Me


I may not hear their words

But I feel them

Watch every fiber of their being

Reveal them

Sing unspoken to their friends

Said it was nonsense


Then a chimp spelling Hebrew

Confirmed it

Made it all click into place

How do you know this?

The mice told me

He spelled out

That reaffirmed it


Humans, mice and chimps

You heard it

All share a language

I've learnt it

Share in my awe today

In what they say

They certainly have gone and earnt it.

  1. Mice chatter to each other all day long, trust me..

    " Mice sing just like birds, but we can’t hear them"

  2. Bow and I knew this long before science found out. Bow was the reason I knew I could trust myself and ignore those who didnt understand! I know Bow is communicating with his keeper this way, even if no one else believes it. He complained about the mice, then came back to his keeper upset they were screaming. He could hear what I felt in the labs. https://notesfromthepens.blogspot.com/2015/04/throwback-thursday-bow-and-mice.html
