Believe It? Or Or Not?

There was an anthill that got in my way.
I politely told them to leave that day.
Move on! Be festive. 
And I shall let you live.
I put away the spray, and they obeyed.

Very strange ... smile ... you know the PoetrySoup site puts our name as well as the form of poetry on the poem and on our list of poems. Do you add your name and other info. because you print out your poems? Wish I had a printer it would make things easier but I try to type (on an old fashioned typewriter) a hard copy I can keep. Anyway, everybody does there own thing ... smile ... Keep up the great writing!! You've been very busy today!!
