Gnatcrobatics

Mr McFiddle was so very small
when he stood on a pin-head you couldn't see him at all.

He entered a grand competition for gnats,
that was usually won by top tiny acrobats.

For the world's smallest man, a magnum achievement!
He pipped to first prize with his own 'Figaro's bereavement'


The crowd oohed and aahed as he grabbed with both hands
the trophy sponsored by Steptoe and friends.


As he tottered around, pride beamed through his dimples.


He set the prize down

and flew off

in a twinkle
