THE IRATE BEE, by                    
First Line: Devilish squirmy spider
Last Line: And push my way clean through.
Subject(s): Bees; Insects; Spiders; Beekeeping; Bugs


Devilish squirmy spider,
Whose traffic cop are you?
Draw in your arms, old miser
And let my wagon through.

Once in your labyrinth of threads
I could not wend my way,
You'd joy to add me to your dead
Laid on a striky ray—

But let me by, ole pudgey face
Or I will sting you too—
And break up all your dainty lace
And push my way clean through.
