Sense Sonnet - Tickler

 Grouchy Giraffe

A grouchy giraffe now I be,

Cuz a pesky mosquito is

Quite a pain in the neck for me,

Buzzing around, minding my biz.

I know it wants to bite my neck,

So try to swat it with my head,

Swing round and round, but what the heck!

Just make myself dizzy instead.

This bad bug bugs me to the point

Of being a grouchy giraffe,

With a neck that's now out of joint.

Darn mosquito has the last laugh.

One more pain in the neck I've got,

Cuz I've tied my neck in a knot.
