No Crickets allowed...

Every time I open my door they try to gain entry...


Poem Artwork


No crickets allowed in my house,
Not even do I allow a mouse,
Because crickets make sound,
And it seems like it is everywhere around…

Nor do I like very much spiders,
The complex did to rid them spray,
They seem to have gone away…

But winter does now approach,
And it’s time to take shelter,
I cannot even disallow a roach,
From taking shelter in my humble abode,
As long as they don’t make any noise,
If that is the case then the noise makers,
Will have to pack a bag & hit the road…

Let go, Ed. The poor critters need a decent home. You should feel complimented they want to come into yours. It must be inviting. (just kidding). Thanks for the poem. Good fun. John

Well, there goes your Christmas party...
and New Years: wine, women, and song.

Get rid of the spiders, crickets and flies,
and the bed bugs that encroaches.
but as Al Sleet would say,
We'll help you smoke the roaches.
