There was once a man called Ollie
Who bought himself an old dolly
It had a mean face
Was covered in lace
He died of shock when it ate a lolly

How the Harvest Mouse Came to Suisun Bay
A long, long time ago there was a family of harvest mice. Mice are common, but these were unique – born to those who had lived in the salty, marshy bay for many generations, these mice ate and drank from the sea as well as the land and rivers. For generations, there were only the southern families, scattered along the marshes of Corte Madera and in the San Francisco Bay (U.S. Fish & Wildlife, 2013). One family, however, would undergo strife and conflict before reaching a whole new world. What became of them after is another tale entirely – but this is how their story begins.

Oh fun!
I totally forgot what a limerick is, thanks for reminding me. That could be our next challenge. Such fun. The doll scared me. Dhar would love this, she's got a dark talent.
You creeped me right out with that one!!! Fun wording though :) I can see why Dharrsheena featured it in the horror group. Great work!
