Jack Ellison Poet Quintain (English)

Ants In Your Pants

Ever wonder why we giggle
How does it exactly start
What makes it uncontrollable
Perhaps it's a silly fart

Giggles are quite intangible
You can't buy 'em at the store
Worth buckets full of greenbacks
Some gold and so much more

You're in a state of euphoria
You try to stay calm but can't
It's a tonic for whatever ails you
When ants get in your pants

Ever wonder why we giggle
How exactly does it start
They say it's very good for the soul
And does wonders for your heart

Susan Burd October 19, 2012 at 7:16 AM The ants up your way must be comics! The ones in Pa hurt when they bite! Very funny. Your are infectious! Jack Ellison October 19, 2012 at 7:42 AM And if you believe that, got some properties in Florida I'd like you take a look at... you think our ants are big, Florida gators are sometimes 83 feet long! Okay, where's my pills! Love ya... Jack xox Jack Ellison October 19, 2012 at 7:38 AM You're right, up here in the frozen North, some have been known to grow to six feet from one end to their other end with nasty big biters! Speaking a strange lingo, they sometimes run for office but no one knows how to speak "antenese" They roam our vast wastelands in great hordes destroying everything in their path! (con't)
