Bees do it,
Even man has to try.
But can cockroaches really fly?

I hope the FAA reads this. I've got enough trouble with flocks of birds! (Funny, and imaginative)
Nice poem Sidi. Personally, I hate cockroaches, but found myself rooting for Archy.
Jack Russell threatened me with the police if I didn't visit your stuff. I'm glad. This was a great laugh. You are a true poetic entertainer. I'll be back for more. Thanks, jim
Archy the flying cockroach... should probably have flagged down a magic carpet taxi coach. He could have thumbed a ride from a Genie... While on his head sporting his sports ace flying beanie. Things would have been much more safer... If he'd only hitched a ride from a sports car racer. Maybe next time he gets that flying urge... Of this plan he'll abort and purge. Walking would be much more nicer... Making his heart's beat not as fast paced as a blender's blades cutting and spinning as a blinding speed motorized dicer. This story done as a poem could not be any better done... For reading this story was ever so fun. God bless and best regards-Mike Gale.
Outstanding! This is just so clever. I found myself pulling for Archy through the whole verse and I am so glad he will live to fly another day (well, maybe not a good idea) . Great stuff! Blessings- TGR
I really laughed and enjoyed reading all about Archy, it's a clever write. I was picturing him in all his endeavours. He was certainly a plucky chap. Well done. Sincerely Ernestine
