Was thinking of a short animal poem this morning and came up with one of them that is more of an insect poem about a pet fly that a kid finds in his room and decides to name.

Buzz
Seeing a dark thing flying over me
creepy, black and tiny to see
bouncing into a window or two
wondering if he could look through
after a while he wasn’t so scary
and up close his legs were hairy
I decided finally to call him buzz
because buzzing around is all he does
watching him circle around my room
and my mom swat him with a broom
-Poem by Justin Germino
