Last Summer
\nby cricketjeff on April 20, 2017.\u00a0 \u00a9 Jeff Green, All rights reserved
\nI woke to find a ferret up my nose.
\nIt wasn’t there when I went up to bed,
\nThis wouldn’t be the lifestyle that I chose,
\nWho wants to find a polecat in their head?<\/p>\n
His mate moved in, and then they built a nest,
\nI cannot sleep through how they spend their nights,
\nAs weeks go by I’m feeling somewhat stressed
\nBut I’ve been told that they have squatters’ rights!<\/p>\n
Their pups were born, assisted by a vet
\nWho didn’t show the least concern for me.
\n“You really do not need to fuss and fret
\nThey’ll move out when the pups reach puberty!”<\/p>\n
The Spanish Inquisition came to call
\nCompared to ferrets caused no fuss at all!<\/p>\n
