They fly onto your hair
And crawl on your hands
They stick together
Like a band

Once a year there is love bug season
Where when you go in the country
Millions hit your sheild for no reason

When I was in 3rd grade I would pivk their wings off
Try to keep them as pets
But they would die off

Love bugs can be cool
But if you think about it
They can be annoying
And a mess too

Cold hands means a warm heart

Smiling here---there is a lot of wisdom in this string of observations--I really liked this part:

"When I was in 3rd grade I would pivk their wings off
Try to keep them as pets
But they would die off"

*chuckling* and I wonder WHY I scare men!

Enjoyed.

Cute poem here, I liked the different rhythms in the piece

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown

Glad to see someone else has love bugs beside
myself & the other people of south Louisiana.
They sure mess up a wind shield in a hurry.

Enjoyed the poem.

Very cute, Julie...
I have never seen a love bug, but I have always lived up north.
We used to call the old Volkswagon Beetles, lovebugs.

Lovebugs? I've seen them. They have this power to create love, as I saw when they led me to Julie.

In a way, they're like Cupid, and they sure hit me hard that day.

What is life without poetry and adventure?
"Little sister" is just another way of saying "Guardian Angel"!

Julie - I'm not sure what a Love Bug is, seems we don't have them in New England. Although, that's what I called my youngest when he was a baby! Hmmm...come to think of it, I still call him that from time to time and he's 22!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

Love bugs are the "Hippies" of the insect world.They get high on automobile fumes.Make love in public and crash on wind shields.
