I Don't Share

I had a yen for home grown peach.
I found but one that I could reach.
I picked and took a bite at once
To taste of its sweet succulence.

Extremely fat and fully fed
An earwig raised his ugly head
And looking me straight in the eye
Dared me that next sweet bite to try.

I very calmly took his dare;
Next time I looked he wasn't there.
No lowly insect shares my peach;
The only one that I can reach.

You took a gross experience and made it cute and clever. Well done

Dear Joyce

You and Betty Lou sure have a wonderful sense of humour! I laughed and laughed!

Which was more juicy, the peach or earwig? Eh! Eh!

Love Isobel xo
