It's time for the Monthly Poetry Group, hosted by Karen at Baking in a Tornado.  Participants write a poem about a topic one of us chose.  This month, Karen chose Bugs.  Be sure to go check out all the poems.






"I love to study etymology"

I told my dearest friend.

She bought me an ant farm to study,

it drove me around the bend!


I tried to explain the mistake to her,

how an "n" makes it a different word,

she thinks I'm being picky

and too much of a word nerd.



*******



My job is in entomology,

I really think it's cool,

I get to work with lots of bugs

and teach about them in school.


But one thing really gets me,

people asking what different words mean,

I'd yell, "I'm not a walking dictionary!"

but I don't want to cause a scene.
