Knew I'd cry if I saw their picture.
That's love in motion.

[Aquamarine]

This is so good. :) You've got talent.

[NicknamedBob]

Thanks!

Perhaps the ghost of Ogden Nash has taken up residence.

[Aquamarine]

Did a search on Ogden Nash. He's pretty good but you're better.

A little trivia I found in the search:
An ancestor, General Francis Nash, gave his name to Nashville, Tennesee.

This one is funny.

The Firefly
by Ogden Nash

The firefly's flame Is something for which science has no name
I can think of nothing eerier
Than flying around with an unidentified glow on a person's posteerier.

I too appreciate you work/contributions Bob..

Home from church & need to mow until dark..later all..

I LOVE TO MOW actually. Just wish the lawn wasn't 8" tall & I wasn't using a electric mower to mow(think about dragging all sorts of extension cords 5 to 6 hundred feet around)

Later all.

For comparison...

“Catching Lightning”

Luciferase, instead of fusion, lights the stars beneath the trees.
We always called them Lightning Bugs, playmates the size of bees.
A game called Mother May I, you move and then you stop,
Wait for the next green signal, just like a traffic cop.

When you get close enough that you can see it in the dark,
Just sweep your hand to catch it with a gentle little arc.
It will alight upon your skin and puzzled, move around,
As if to wonder how the heck it just got on the ground.

They are a gentle creature. Their feet don’t even hurt.
As larger beetles sometimes do, as if their boots were spurred.
They walk around and taste you some, but quickly they get bored,
And soon they jump up in the air, and once again they‘ve soared.

Off to join the traffic. It’s rush hour there, you know.
This is a serious business, they’re not just putting on a show.
They have to find their mate out there, with just a tiny light.
Although they are just tiny bugs, they seem to me quite bright.

D2,

Greetings. I have googled the dicken's out of this ditty, but only come up with emails and unknowns as sources.

With your suggestion of Oliver North...I have not found anything as yet.

Bottomline is I like it, and want to share it. If anyone can name source please do. I want to thank them.
