Take a Hike

Don’t forget the insect repellent

Mosquitoes can cause such discontent

     These bugs make me itch

     Watch me swat and twitch

The cost of “Off” is money well spent

Oh how I agree with you my friend! There are many different products of "Off" that you can use to keep those creatures off of you! The most popular is the spray, as that was the original form! I really enjoyed reading this wonderful poem here this evening What a masterful piece, Great Work!!
