never to stand a chance
of droll she tralala

hear about the angry flea

flitting about crabbily

well it hopped a dog

who fell in a bog

and they floated out to sea....

Is just one too many for me
So please swap your cur
For something sans fur
To avoid a catastrophe!...

Merchandise appearing.
Bargain hunters searching
Treasures departing.
Dealers exiting
with pockets a-jingling....

Brave Men

Courage has its place.
And the cowardly will flea.
But brave men save lives.

A sad old flea and a silly old gnat
were boogieing it down
on the neck of an aristocrat
When suddenly Splat
they're flat
And that was that...

  eager to live life to the hilt
A flea-bitten hound crept back home
  Who'd taken the meat from his bone...

All sat down to some tea,
They all ate some ham,
With some bread and some jam,
And were all as content as can be....

In…. Out

In….out
Someday it shall
Be found

Arms reach out
But not in the direction
I wish

Egret but 12 feet away
Flea bites round my ankles...

Is that a flea on me?
Get off of me you flea
'Cause I'll crush your crust
And I'll flick your dust
Then You'll see I don't like fleas

in a flea market
much loved treasures
end in a new home
someone's loss
is someone's gain
my parents like
will never come again....

A place that always makes me sweat
A simple doctor's exam
He doesn't know who I am
I took a wrong turn and went to the vet...

On Saturday I went shopping
Where someone's fleas were still hopping
I don't wish to give blood
To fleas jumping from crud
Go somewhere else for flea swapping!...

My brown kelpy outback dog
Quite often gets on the grog,
He chases his tail constantly,
Briefly stopping to scratch a flea,
Then, off with the sheep to play leap-frog....

on the mosquito
before spruce biting fleas flies
the cottonwood tree

once again bitten
all over my arms and neck
by those mosquitoes

... lithesome fawn stops, stoops to drink

    spring water fresh, cool

    and clear



... such graceful creature of art

    with a fat flea behind

    its ear!...
