Ask a Silly Question...
by Dave FitzgeraldA mozzie came to bite me
But I didn't give it the chance.
It buzzed around me constantly
Causing me to dance.
I waved my hands maniacally
Trying to not get bit.
I asked my boy of the mozzie
"It's the same one isn't it?"
He looked at me like I was daft
And without breaking his pace
Said "I haven't got a clue Dad,
I didn't see his face!" 09/15/2006
Author's Note: ...Get a silly answer.
(Ps it's a mosquito, just in case)

Great write. But, not all silly questions, are always silly. It just seems that way sometimes. Thanks for sharing this one, it's cute. Kids will pretty give ya a good answer. I also agree with some of the others. :) |
