The Insect Is A Creature, Small



Posted: Wednesday, September 23, 2009

The insect is a creature, small,
He walks on ceilings, walks on walls,
And burrows deep within the earth,
But many cannot see his worth. The Caterpillar, full of fuzz,
Is not a bee; he doesn't buzz,
But he becomes a butterfly,
And causes those who see to sigh.

The Ladybug, with shiny shell,
Is really cute, but she can smell,
On autumn leaves she loves to roam,
Her babies wait for her at home.

The Water-spider is profound,
One top of water he is found,
Then takes a bubble to his home,
To breath the air inside this dome.

So many insects run around,
In many places they are found,
Outside, and sometimes in our house,
From there we always want to rouse.

Without the insects, life would be,
A little sadder, you'll agree,
So treat each insect with respect,
Please set them free and don't collect.

David Pekrul was born in New Westminster, B. C. Canada.

He wrote his first poem in February, 2004, as an Anniversary card for his wife, Linda. Being rather pleased by the results of his first attempt, he wrote a second one, then another and another. He soon realized that he was in love with words.

The pictures that his words paint may not always be pretty, but they are pictures worth viewing, for he writes about the world around him, whether they be things good, bad or otherwise. He also writes about family, nature, God and faith.

His first poetry book, "Parts Of The Sum Volume One" has just been published and can be found at http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/3145051

David makes his home in the foothills of the Canadian Rockies with his wife Linda and spoiled pup, Tiki.
