Buzzing Skeeters
The skeeters have scattered all about once more
They hide among dragonflies while trying to soar
Nimble, they quickly contrive to dodge every swat
I can still hear them buzzing, afraid to get caught
Dragonflies are friendly, but if they turn their backs
Wily skeeters feast on their blood in devious attacks
But like every old skeeter, their time will soon come
There are too many dragonflies for them to run from
There is a moral to this story, which I am glad to tell
Careful who you bite; some will ring your death knell
Dragonflies are spunky and always stand their ground
You can’t pretend to be innocent with so many around
