In a cozy little house, nestled 'neath the moon's soft glow,
Lived a clever little mouse named Thrifty, you should know.
With whiskers long and velvety ears, so sweet,
Thrifty had a heart that always skipped a beat.

He'd scamper and gather, through fields and nooks,
Storing away treasures, little acorns and books.
But what set Thrifty apart, you see,
Was his boundless gratitude, as bright as a bee.

One sunny morn, as Thrifty strolled,
He stumbled upon a sight, his eyes behold:
A tiny bird, its wing injured and sore,
Lying helpless on the forest's floor.

Compassion surged within Thrifty's breast,
He gently lifted the bird and gave it rest.
With care and kindness, he nursed it back to health,
Tending to its needs with love and stealth.

As the bird's strength returned, it soared high,
Circling Thrifty's house, a melody in the sky.
In its cheerful tune, a grateful note,
"Thank you, kind mouse, for mending my boat."

Thrifty smiled, his heart filled with glee,
"You're welcome, little bird, it's my destiny.
To spread kindness throughout, big and small,
And cherish every moment, standing tall."

Word of Thrifty's gratitude spread far and wide,
Through the whispering winds, like a gentle tide.
Creatures great and small, from near and afar,
Came seeking his wisdom, like a guiding star.

He taught them to appreciate the simple things,
Like the warmth of the sun and birds' sweet sings.
To value friendship, both old and new,
And to give thanks for the love they knew.

And so, Thrifty, the thankful mouse,
Became a beacon of gratitude, in every house.
His legacy lived on, inspiring each soul,
To cherish every moment, and make their spirits whole.
