Jumping Grasshopper

It is the grasshopper gone wild...a sillly little minute poem...

 

On fields of green I watch the sky
A flash goes by
Strange blur of green
Across sky seen

It is the grasshopper gone wild
His inner child
Jumping in glee
For all to see

Grasshopper leaps to touch white cloud
He is so proud
To soar so high
And touch blue sky.

Ah, so you're layin' around in the weeds again? Jo, you're supposed to be photographing the fauna... hee hee.

I'm not sure what form this is, but it has an interesting rhythm, a little different than I've come to expect. Very original... nice job.

I like this...

It's terribly fun and light, and just rolls off the tongue. Very nice minute poem. Thank you!
