Mosquito in A Speedo

 

A Mosquito in a Speedo is a silly thing to say

Although it could turn a day cheerful that was once as gray as clay

A Butterfly in a Tie seems much more apropos

Certainly more conservative as the words begin to ebb and flow

A Caterpillar in Galoshes brings a faint smile to the lips

While a BEE in a Bonnet might make you weak in the hips

A Beetle floating in a Walnut Shell could quite clearly be amusing

As he precariously tries his hand at a little Nautical Cruising

Conjuring these mental images could certainly brighten up your day

But a Mosquito in a Speedo is the silliest thing I can say….
