A Bedbug and a Flea
Greetings bedbug - said a flea
Let me rest my head
In this lovely bed I see
Welcome flea - a bedbug said
For the night here stay
You will very well be fed
Not one bite I’ve had this day
Was the fleas reply
To a body lead the way!
Not many I’ve known so dry!
Said the host of guest
From a lady came a cry
Help! I’m bitten by some pest!
Husband get the maid
Or tonight I cannot rest!
Heard the flea and was afraid
I must go! it cried
A rapid escape then made
The bedbug was slow to hide
And soon was no more
For that hungry flea it died
From a bedroom hear a snore
Saying clear and loud
To slumber this bed is for
Said a bedbug - on a cloud
Two is company
Three ( if one a flea )
Is sure to be a crowd
