My legs are long and skinny, But my thighs are full of might. My wings make quite a noise, Whenever they take flight. I'm green and have two feelers, I spit tobacco juice. I hop across fields and lawns, And I'm smaller than a goose. In fact, I am an insect And fairly large in size. I may not have an owl's brain, But I'd say I'm very wise! ~ * ~ Howdy! I'm a grasshopper! I'm a bug that's long and lean. You may consider me a pest, But I'm never, ever mean! |

This is darling. I can visualize it illustrated in a child's book of poems. Have you thought of publishing such a book? They would love the upbeat style you have. miscellanea |

Ah, you do not know the grasshopper I know, he's deadly in the martial arts -- he is my instructor, "the grasshopper" and he loves to toss around this here little bunny! Of course, a time or two that I've had my way seen This was very cute -  SusanHappiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |
