Cliches Come To Life

Deep in thought
  I clear my throat
When out pops the frog

Sometimes I'm so nervous
  I about pee in my pants
Holy Moses: Here come the ants

Adjusting my bonnet
  I feel a sharp needle
Yup, there's the bee

I can't hold back any longer
  And much to my chagrin
There go my horses

And when I inspect
  My grandfather clock
I find a tic in its tock

But one thing I'll never do
  I'll never anger my wife
Because then I'll find out
  What it is to live a dog's life



 ~ Just a little silly musing on
       the vagaries of life
     (whatever that means)
