Cat Eyed Insect In My Garden
Cat eyed insect popped out of the garden today
I saw the yellow in its eyes staring at me in a way
Big blink and then the insect dove down into clay
Surprised me too, for I had not seen it since May
What was that? Asked my fellow student, Gay.
He had seen it but not here, over there in the hay
Must have been another one, I told him and May
A mean girl who tried to capture the insect today.
I was thrilled that the creature swiftly got away.
Rooting for the cat eyed monster in the clay
Loving it that he was not captured by mean May
Hoping he would in my garden forever stay
