The Cuddling CricketIt’s not enough to have a Dragon plus his penguins and pigeons, too?
Darn it! I had a limit, until a cute Cuddling Cricket found my shoe.

Now, he won’t let go of my...

THE CRICKET
chirp chirp!
Visions of my past why are they following me?
Leave me the h3!! Alone,
Let me be, the earth is my home.
I am not willing to fly free allowing my deception to roam free.
A passion I no longer see.
I...

crickets played and hopped merrily on by.
Then one day...

My Grass and Mole CricketMy Grass and Mole Cricket
My grass is being killed by mole cricket,
Even beneath my fence that is a picket;
Grass is dying;
We are crying;
Do wish there is way that we can lick it.

My Debut At CricketSir Leonard Hutton famous for cricket
Idolized him yet we played in the snicket
His bat willow three springs and all
Ours a joke no umpire to call
Yet did dream of 'Lords' having took a wicket.

The Garden Keeper and the CricketI was cleaning my garden bed one day
when a lovely bright green cricket had
a word or two to me, to say.
At first my eyes was full of wonder

Farewell Jimmy CricketAlone in my room...
Bored and hungry
With no food to consume
I look at a corner...
A cricket
"Hello, Jimmy, it's an honour."
My room became his...
My new room-mate
My heart was filled wit bliss
Day 3, knocked off at five
Jimmy still in my room
"Come on, let's get you a wife."
I offered...

Till one day I told them to stick it
I was in at the crease
And was brought to my knees
When a googly hit me, middle wicket...

Bonds are forged on a pitch unique, camped on the banks of Reedybrook creek.
The grass is cut, the fields set out, the umpires shout, ‘Fair play gents, otherwise, you’re out!’
Of drinks consumed,...
