Fire Ants

granny sat on a mound of fire ants
who crawled right into her underpants
they bit her right on the rump
and boy did she begin to jump and bump
she wiggled and bobbed and did a funny prance
and we never even knew she could dance

G'day Timothy ... these angry ants are just starting to make their presence felt in Australia. I believe a number of victims have joined Grannie doing the fireant waltz - thank you Timothy - Lindsay
