This Is Serious
No one told us about the deer flies who live in
The marsh
Add life they multiply.
They are waiting to descend in a flash on the
Daring who are rash
Who have no inside enclosure or any netting to
Make a dash
Where the humans will get bitten not once but
many times by the deer flies who live in the marsh.
When human and fly meet this is a major clash
For many of these creatures will die.
They are waiting to descend in a flash on the
Daring who are rash
From the boat you'll hear the slap and someone
Yell balderdash
Which as the person gets bit it does intensify
As they fight off the deer flies who live in the
Marsh.
People have been known to get whiplash
While swinging at the flies who land and bite
As off they fly.
Believe me, they are waiting to descend in a
Flash on the Daring who are rash.
Surprise! We have bug spray, a fly swatter to
Squash, bash, and trash
As we try to rectify
The problem with the deer flies who live in the
Marsh.
They are waiting to descend in a flash on the
Daring who are rash.
