Country Bugs

The moths get through the screen somehow

And when I walk outside,

The gnats and skeeters buzz around - 

There’s no place you can hide.


The ants, at times, invade the house

And maybe, curled up tight,

A millipede will show, which is

A most unwelcome sight.


I haven’t seen the bees or wasps

But spiders must be here.

Their webs and those entrapped provide

The proof that they are near.


The country’s filled with bugs galore

And we can coexist,

But once they’re on my turf 

The handy swatter I enlist.
