Lord, why did You make insects
And creepy, crawly critters?
Things with wings and bugs with webs
Sure give me shakes and jitters!
I know birds need bugs to eat,
But sometimes bugs like ME.
And little bees make honey sweet,
But since they sting, I flee!
When I sit out on my deck
Mosquitos share my quiet space.
I'm afraid I do not show them
Welcome, caring, love or grace.
And little ants scout out my kitchen,
Looking for some food.
Patience flies right out the door.
To them I am quite rude!
There are moths who like to chew
A hole in things I wear.
I don't buy my clothes for them...
Not for them to share!
I might like a lady bug,
To bring me some good luck,
But mostly don't like crawly things.
They make me nervous. Yuck!
