Mosquito's In Southport
There I was on holiday in August 2013
the second day at Southport by the sea
sitting in the park by the pond
felt a scratch just below the knee
So I started to scratch it
despite my wife's pleas to not
hardly got any sleep that night
so was wondering what I caught
First thing next day got to doctor
she says you've got mosquito bite
gave me anti-biotics and some cream
said that leg of yours quite a sight
After a week the itch calmed down
still enjoyed the holiday despite bite
the sunshine stayed throughout the hol
still got tanned really bright
So if you get mosquito bite
make sure you don't scratch
for it'll bite you back
and be more than your match!
AUTHOR NOTES:For you non UKers this holiday was in Southport, England on
north west coastline between Liiverpool and Blackpool, by the way I'm going
back soon for this years holiday but no sitting in park by the pond, no way!!
