Creepy Crawlies

I lay in bed and what do I see A spider walking right above me It is a huge and fleshy one In the morning it would be gone I see more creepy crawlies again They are really becoming a pain Wood lice are walking along the path When I have seen them I need a bath I can’t stand insects of any kind They nearly send me out of my mind I know they exist and they are there But I don’t want them anywhere In the garden it’s full of ants I really don’t want them in my pants Centipedes well what can I say Too many legs so keep them away Live and let live I know it’s true I don’t mind whatever they do But please don’t let them come near me I can’t stand creepy crawlies you see

Most people have an aversion to these bugs well except maybe some boys, men. Even though these have a place in the eco system. You have done a very nice Rhyme on the topic. Keep writing.

These long and short legged friends we call spiders are a joy to have in our homes, as they keep the unwanted bug count down. I dare say they are as much afraid of us as we are of them, and look at the size of us >> James
