Nosee'um Poem


Nosee'um Poem

It's late afternoon and I'm ready to give in to the tedium,
But, oh! you sneaky nosee'um!
I never know where you're going to or coming from.
You could be breeding in the cymbidium,
Or in the chrysanthemum.
There's no telltale hum.
All of a sudden, you've bit my bum
Right through the peplum!
Scratching, I look like I belong in Bedlam.
Bites as round and red as a plum!
Forgot to put on bug spray and now I feel dumb.
I wish I could just go numb
Makes me feel glum
Nothing eases the itch like a little rum.
Yum
Yum!
