The Preying Praying Mantis

The Preying Praying Mantis She folds her limbs and waits quietly. He comes near, she waits silently. They do the dance, Then comes her chance. And snap! Off with his head quickly!

Good poem, Beverly. There's a series on tv--"Snapped"--that tells about women who compare closely to the praying mantis! Janice
