When the hungry housefly was feeling energetic,
Off to the gym he zoomed, feeling all athletic…
He quickly used up a hundred calories,
Zipping around the gym’s galleries,
He munched on the weights and crunched with his mates,
A swarm of them gathered, to lift up six crates…
He nibbled a hole in the rowing machine,
Then polished off the bicycle completely clean…
Next he ran around for a jog,
Over the mats, he jumped a leapfrog !
The hungry fly’s appetite, was so strong,
He took a bite of the dumb bells, then gave out a song !
He huffed and puffed as he flapped his wings,
Sweated around the gym and all of it’s things…
Finally, in the corner, resting on the water tank,
He took a big gulp, then promptly in sank !
