Mosquito

Mosquito, would you go away
and please not bother me?
 
Enjoy this lovely summer day,
there’s lots to do and see.
 
Why don't you go collect your friends
and find a spot that’s cool,
 
or fly off to the neighbors’ yard;
I think they’re by the pool.

There is no torture worse than a mosquito buzzing in your ear.

❤️Love this!❤️ It's always a good thing to have a laugh in the morning. And, yes, those pesky mosquitoes are already buzzing me like Maverick and Goose buzzing the control tower in Top Gun. 😁😆
