Fred had a huge sore appear on his head Feeling itchy, he scratched until it bled He risked looking like a fool And dunked his head in the pool Then gasped at the huge tick floating he shed

This is so clever, dear Tania. You have come up with a great reason for Fred's dunking his head in the pool. Ticks can be so dangerous. Once a tick bit me. With a swollen feet, I had to stay indoors unable to walk for over a month. All the Best.
