Beautiful Baubles

Irridescent blue butterfly 
Amber stones polished like jewels
Beautiful trinkets, baubles
Preserved history clear to see
Unearth the mystery past lives
Speculate, theorize, think
Hypothesis science
Has some errors, oh no!

Bomb shell of science, brainiac
Giant insects ready to prey
Eddy release the brain waves
Thoughts seize and become ideas
Theory to be tried, tested
Calculated, repeated
Advanced to proven facts
Write poetic facts, forms

Dead head cockroach canable
Madagascar hissing roach
Freaks of nature sure to fright
Explore your science museum
Facts finding days surely pleasing
Intrigue, educate, stimulate
Young minds need science facts
Fun observatory!

I remember that day of delight...Those giant bugs were great then so many bugs to see...The architecture design computer and all that was so much fun..Have a great night ...Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my work..Elaine was not there tonight...They went on a trip for a few days..So see me sometimes in the next few days..Mom

When you think about it, Doris, the butterfly is one animal that can definitely lay claim to a past life -- as a caterpillar! I am not a fan of enimology, but studying insect behavior does stimulate young minds. Very interesting poem! Love, Carolyn

Smile ~ And "He" said, "Father I thank 'You,' for giving such wonderously beautiful wisdom to babes &, blinding those whom think they are wise towards the point of a stumbling block; this folly, leading unto their own mis-guided prideful destruction; when the tables are suddenly turned, forevermore!!!" ~ And then, it will be too late for these king kongs of, vanitas vanitatum; so let it written, so let it be done ~ ....Cont:)
