ALL
GOD'S CREATURES
My house,
It has some termites.
My house
It is their feast.
My house,
God gave
Them termites,
He really likes them beast!
But just like me,
Them termites,
Were made byGod,
Creator.
And, God, His
Greatest work?
The termite
Exterminator!

We've been battling termites all summer (and really since last summer). Just LOVED this poem, and hope you don't mind that I used it for my Poetry Friday submission today (here if you're interested). Glad you submitted this to the Catholic Carnival or I would have never had this early morning laugh with my coffee...and over such an unlikely topic! :)
Dear Sarah,
So glad you liked it and of course I'm thrilled you put it on your "Poetry Friday"...something is wrong w/my computer and I couldn't click on your "here" and go to see your Poetry page. Could you send my your URL?

Thank you Sarah...I love that name, "Snoring Scholar"!!
Thanks. There's a whole story behind it...I'm fond of alliteration in general...
