Return of the Invaders
The spotted lantern fly is back,
With wings of spots on red and black,
Arriving not with praise or pomp,
But calls to, if you see one, stomp!
They first appeared a year ago
And are invasive, so you know,
Destroying all the other plants
They meet, in every circumstance.
I haven’t seen one yet, but I
Am quite prepared to help them die,
My trusty soles all set to crush
These bugs and turn them into mush.
