The Perils of Camping

Sleeping in a tent at night
Zippered in cosy and warm
You and me then bugs take flight
In a cloud they swarm

They hover round choose their prey 
Your perfume means they bite me
In my sleeping bag I lay
then off to Dawn (P)

Allan Williams for Bite Me contest (as I am new I went for some else new Dawn Pulido)
