Why, O why, did God instruct the fly
To buzz around the poor cow's eye?
Because if to the other end he sails
He's swatted by that same cow's tail
hit my knees
couldn’t float
hand swatted away
should I
have crawled my way to the altar
ledge
God smiles
lifts me up
brushes me off
blesses me
buzzing at my ear
mosquito I thought
swatted at it twice
it swarmed off
a swarm of one
I looked up to see it flee
not a mosquito
a teeny tiny gray hummingbird
why wasn’t it on a flower?
New Pup
We have her now
Darling, cute and funny
Uh-oh. Look who is not happy
Cat hissed furiously at both of us
Swatted new puppy on the nose
But puppy keeps playing
Does not see cat
Run Pup!
I always thought I was the moth, desperately trying to stay in your light no matter how many times you swatted
But now I see, I was only drawn to your light because it had been mine all along and you'd stolen it from me
tattered scrolls
lie lifeless
beneath a wreath of memories
torn fragments of spirits departed
litter the moments in between
fractured hopes crushed desires
swatted away like annoying murmurs
return to whisper
an endearing lie
that buds of passion
bloom, to forever die
Form:
Yesterday I was being bombarded
by a tiny annoying buzzing kamikaze pilot
Sounding like a mosquito on speed
it divebombed both of my ears
I swatted at it several times, thinking I would be stung or bitten
Finally caught a glimpse of the aircraft
it was a teeny tiny gray hummingbird
did he think I was a flower?
There’s nothing like a screened-in porch
To help me to relax.
It brings to me a comfort
My apartment surely lacks.
The birdsong and the swishing leaves,
The swaying of the trees,
Combined with the caresses
Of the gentle summer breeze
All add up to such a fine retreat
That, on this lovely day,
Every stressor in my life is somehow
Swatted clean away.
Bored with nature, I spurned the gay meadow
Stepped on ladybugs, swatted butterflies
Turned my back on creation
Complained of blue skies
Scorned the sun’s rays, ridiculed the moon
On a picture-perfect day said, “Go away, June”
Opened my device to see what I’d missed
~ A heart-stopping photo of a lake bathed in mist
The fly swatter is out,
Bugs are all about.
How could that be,
What I see?
Has many legs.
Not a spider,
Or a fly.
But something fanciful on the eye!
Swatted quick to the ground,
SMASHED FLAT!
Legs waving all around.
"You killed my lashes", she wailed!
Carefully,
I slunk on by.
Didn't realize,
It was it was part of her eye!
The mailman frowned at the black snarling cat
He picked up his sack and smacked the air with a bat
But my baby is in there! The mama cat said.
The next time he swatted, he almost hit her head.
A good Samaritan dog had seen what was what.
He ran out and helped the mother, his name was McFutt.
You are such a good guy! She said. I am Mrs. McNally.,
Then she told all the other cats to leave him alone in the alley.
Swimming in the ocean
a wincing couple pinches
Little creature on my leg
not more than six or seven inches
I looked again, to my surprise
Hello! - a trilobite!
Two pincers jutting from its head
tiny, fearsome sight
I scolded it: 'You are extinct'
'Now go away and I won't tell
You'll get to live another day.'
He stayed... So, I swatted him
to prehistoric hell ~
