Description
English version by the composer of the Ohrwurmgesang, a comic poem by Wilhelm Busch.
The original German version is available at:

The thwarted poet Baldwin Baa-Lamb hopes to find inspiration in nature but the earwig and the little bird provide distractions that totally thwart his poetic aspirations.
