If it's only happening a couple times, add this to the image tag:
<img src="yourimage.jpg" style="float:left;margin-right:6px;" /> The text goes here.
If it's happening a lot, add a class to the image, then put the above styles out in a style sheet.
<img src="yourimage.jpg" class="imagefloat" />
and
.imagefloat {
float:left;
margin-right:6px;
}


You might find the hard way that the above will cause other slight quirks in the layout, but those can be dealt with easily when/if they arrive.
