Grasshoppers


Green grasshoppers glide gracefully over the ground, 
Their glossy gossamer wings glitter all around, 
Their glassy feathers generate grandiose sound, 
Like glorious gladiators, some golden gowned
gorgeous grigs gallop in their gluttonous manner, 
Other garish brown ones glow like grimy scanner
as they hover in swarms like a greasy banner, 
Best, stay away from grasshoppers - that's the plan, er!!!
