Mosquito Sneeze

Mosquito Sneeze

I was just about to sneeze,
When I felt a mosquito
Squat firmly upon my nose
And watched it "bite me"!

"Ah-Choo!" And up it arose
In search of another drink,
Gliding gently where he thinks--
On ^Rick's head--drilling!

This is a fabulously incredible write my friend! What a spectacular poem judging by these two awesome lines, "Squat firmly upon my nose, And watched it "bite me"!" just a terrible place to get bitten! I really enjoyed your poem that I have read this afternoon! Terrific write! I love your poem that you have written Debbie! Great Work!!
