Monsieur Grasshopper (Silly Verse)

One leg two legs
Hop to the beat
Never mind what others say
I sometimes like to cheat

On the tree I like to stretch 
and bask in color green
Yet on a branch I simply doze 
in dismal color brown.

My puny size and fleet of foot
 confuse people’s eyes
They never know where I am at
 So illusive  I am.

I sing sweeter than  cicadas
In an octave higher too
Even birds look at me with envy
Except the cuckatoo.

Heh, heh ….. Boo.!
