Classic Poem

Here is a house with a pointed door,
" Pointed door. " Index fingers and thumbs together.
Windows tall, and a fine flat floor.
" Windows tall. " Fingers of both hands joined at the tips and stretched apart. " Fine flat floor. " Hands held flat, palms down, side by side on floor or desk.
Three good people live in the house,
" Three good people. " Three middle fingers of one hand standing up under shelter of the other.
One fat cat, and one thin mouse.
" One fat cat. " Right-hand thumb stands up. " One thin mouse. " Right-hand little finger stands up.
Out of his hole the mousie peeps,
" Out of his hole. " Right-hand little finger peeps through left hand folded into a fist.
Out of his corner the pussie-cat leaps!
" Out of his corner. " Right-hand thumb jumps over upon left-hand fist.
Three good people say " Oh! oh! oh! "
" Three good people. " Fingers stand up as before.
Mousie inside says " No! no! no! "
" Mousie inside. " Little finger draws back inside left-hand fist.
