MESSY MUNCHERS
Bits of “dusty miller” plants
Don’t interest even the ants…
Scattered rounds
On deer feeding grounds,
Can be viewed on different slants.
–
Some say the plants aren’t chewy,
So deer spit them out, PI-TUI …
Good food they’re wasting
If just nasty tasting,
Deer quietly say, “Phooey!”
–Jonathan Caswell
CASES OF (GOOSE) REPELLENT,
Alternative lyrics to that classic folk tune,
“Grandma’s in the Cellar,” as sung by Lisa Loeb.
Cases of repellent
From bio-chemical talent,
Basting grasses with nasty-tasting spray…
(HONK, HONK!)
Hordes of geese our sidewalks pooping
Aren’t conducive to poop scooping,
What a broom and real hot water cleans away!
–
NASTY GEESE—BIG RELEASE!
It’s a problem for the public walking through…
But those anti-goose talents
Make foul-tasting repellents,
So the chore of cleaning sidewalks may be through!
–
Company tried imitation
Coyotes stationed
At fixed points trying to scare geese away…
(HONK, HONK!)
But the old geese soon saw through
That subterfuge too,
In a week the “faux furs” had nought to say!
–
NASTY GEESE—-BIG RELEASE!
It’s a problem for the public walking through…
But with anti-goose talent
Making foul-taste repellent,
Maybe our goose problem will disappear too!
