Short Horned Grasshoppers

The short-horned grasshoppers are here.
Not a great morn to walk with the deer.
They came in a form
A gigantic swarm.
Taunting, laughing, ready to jeer.

Oh boy, with us it's stink bugs. They like riding in on our shoulders and backs. They've also got their aim at the doors down pat. Every time a door opens, zoom! That's nature though. Although I would love a walk with the deer.
