I'm A Little Mosquito: Unknown Ghanaian

I'm a little mosquito, brown or black.
I have a round head and two wings on my back.
I have two big eyes, I can see very well.
With my two antennae, I feel and smell.
I'm a little mosquito, brown or black.
Look out for me now. I 'm on your back.
I'm a hungry mosquito, green or tan.
I hatched from an egg. I live in a can.
I am very hungry. I want something to eat.
Look! My meal walks down the street!
I'm a little mosquito, green or tan.
Yesterday you saw me coming and you ran.

Unknown



This was a Ghanaian poem I saw posted on one of the class room walls. I liked the poem and so I took a picture of it so that I could share it later on. I did not get much sleep yesterday so I am going to call it a night sorry I have no amazing story to share tonight. I did teach today but i will bring you up to speed on my day tomorrow. But before I say goodnight I wanted to let you know I am going to Cape coast this weekend so the exciting weekend adventures will continue on. I was home sick this morning so somebody pick up the phone and tell my Momma I love her...No one will answer when I call :( Medici (thanks)

Chris I just joined your blog today, so I have some catching up to do. From what I have read so far it sounds like you are having a great time and learning a lot as well. I'm glad you learned how to post videos because I have to see your new African dance moves. I thought I would drop a line to let you know you have people supporting you and are very proud of you. Keep the good stuff coming and before you know it, you will be back waiting to go back.
