Lemon Tea. Comical poem by Angela Lansbury.Tea

 


When I see insects I don't know

Which of the crowd Is friend or foe?

Which moths are fond of eating clothes

Only its friend, the moth God knows.


The pesky things come in at night

From miles away they see our light 

We open windows for ventilation

And turn into an insect station




Some small insects have bitten me

They treat me like I'm family

Obliged to give them lunch and tea

A tasty feast timeless and free


I need to leave more vital tasks

The web gives answeres when I ask


I learned a very simple fact

Flower perfume , I thought attracts

Adoring men to me and you

Alas attracts the insects too


Insects don't leave when I tell them

I need to scare them off with lemon

Lemons taste sour, and insects learn

One sniff's enough , they won't return.
