MOSQUITO MIKE Just something a bit humorous on this hot summer day.. There once was a mosquito named Mike. His buzzing and biting I did not like. On my arm he found a place flitted and fluttered with grace. I swatted at him with a handspike. Mike dodged and weaved with carefree ease. He feasted on my blood, what a sleaze. He's a small creature, not grand, Mosquito Mike, wings so weak and bland. Caught him in my hand. OOOPS! Big squeeze.

This is simply beautiful. I love it so much. Mosquitoes are a real menace. Here in our place, this is the mosquito season. Swatting mosquitoes is my prime duty during evenings. Even if I sit in a gathering, they will swarm around me and attack.
