Ever been crabbing from a pier or a mud bank
in Maryland, Delaware
Perhaps from a beach or a boat
The blue crabs totally unaware
That you’d use your hands or a net
Afterwards, quenched your thirst with a root
beer float
Male blue crab known as Jimmy, have you
ever met?
Blue crabs are crustaceans willing to sacrifice
limbs to avoid capture
Limbs later regenerated
Might leave us enraptured

I have been crabbing in Walberswick, Suffolk, but not in Maryland! Then we take the buckets down to the beach, and bet on who will get to the waves first. Those crabs who ate too much bacon were the slowest. Nice one, nice memories, thanks Ana, xxPenny
