Warm weather’s here and with it comes,

  ten trillion flying, crawling, jumping things,

  some jump like Kangaroo’s,

  billions buzz by on their wings

Some inch themselves along,

  and then turn into butterflies,

  to sit and watch them navigate,

  is a circus for the eyes.

Tho some may need a donor,

  for they’re daily blood supply,

  most of them won’t bother you,

  they just fly or crawl on by

Designed by God and mother nature,

  each insect has it’s place,

  and there’s really not that many,

  that bug the human race.

From lady bugs to bumble bees,

  lots of insects have their charm,

  until they’re on your neck,

  or may be crawling up your arm

I like the moths that dine on nectar,

  from the fragrant blooms of spring,

  and the translucent dragonflies,

  that buzz around but never sting

Crickets, beetles, butterflies,

  and even spiders are okay,

  most bugs will never bug you,

  they might even inspire your day…
