1076 - The wasps (Aristophanes meets Hitchcock)

Unusually for me, garden centres
Were where I hung out most of Saturday
It’s Josephine you have to blame for this
She wanted a particular cuddly toy
Woodford Garden Centre’s not far away
And they have fish for sale you can smile at
As they dart back and forth, all day, all day
Some look electric; some whiskered like cat
The rain stopped, so Madame decided that
We sit outside, where we both heard the buzz
Of wasps, attracted by her bright jelly
And my tomato sauce (one walked in it!)
Next - Brookside (Poynton): another wasp was
Sat on my cheeseburger. Twice in one day!
