Yes, it can get pretty bad.
ReplyDeleteThe insects look like red flowers on the plant :)
ReplyDeletethat would be an awful epidemic, what the heck are those things Jim?
ReplyDelete73's!
At first I thought they were flowers too but then they turned ugly when I read what they really were. Effective words Jim.
ReplyDeleteGreat acrostic Jim. Yes, those little critters can create quite an epidemic.
ReplyDeleteAn acrostic--how clever, Jim! I keep looking at "epidemic" and wonder how the heck I can work it into a haiku. So far, no luck. Maybe I need to think "acrostic," huh?
ReplyDeleteVery interestingly brought out..Jim.. a great take..
ReplyDeleteewww.... great job on the acrostic though, but still...ewww!!!
ReplyDeleteVery clever...I especially loved your 'indigest chun"! lol
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever seen those little critters where I live...I think I'm glad about that. :~)
Yes, oh yes. Thanks, Jim.
ReplyDeleteThat would be a miss take. For “chur”. What are they, anyway? They seem to be crawling all over my keys. Argggh!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your lovely message.
You're cheating.
