Cool Grasshopper Poem by Douglas McClarty

Cool Grasshopper



I saved a Grasshopper
from the pool today
He was wet and soggy
when I set him on the clay
I swore he was staring at me
while he got dry
Then it occurred to me
the suns so hot he'll fry
But one great leap he landed
back in the pool
How stupid,
this grasshopper wanted to get cool.
