and watching all the little yellow bees
But birds often drop things and bees can sting
One has to be watchful when it is Spring
Better keep covered from head to our knees

Never count chickens until they are hatched

while sitting underneath the tree
Perhaps we could make this a sonnet

So, let's sit by the fire
And dream till we tire
In theory this makes us feel cheery

with its heart on its leg
Looking just like a stunned mullet

Feels like life in the Army
No wonder I'm feeling so worn
