Dodo
They come in all shapes and sizes
some are long and thin, others fat
little ones broad as they are long
some with hairs that give a sting
All kinds of colours we come in
circles and stripes adorn us
winged critters are some of us
others have legs or even none
Our main task is to clear up
to compost the old vegetation
to pollinate the flowers
we are essential to continued life
DODO
Dodo is Swahili an East African language for insect of any kind
