Dancing With Dragonflies
Flip-pity fly,
Swoop-pity sail
Catch a dragonfly
By the tail
If he buzzes
Let him bail
Flip-pity fly,
Swoop-pity sail
My mother said
that looks are only
skin deep
and it's on
the inside that counts
but society has
other ideas
The best ones
are not
the most attractive
they certainly aren't
the nicest
She was after
my money
She was trying
to change me
She wants me
to be more fit
My mother said
to pick
the best one
and you
are
not
it
