Three from Sheri
TINY OLYMPIANS
Froghoppers leap
Winning the high jump
Insect world’s athletes
A FLUTTER OF WINGS
Brilliant butterflies
Collectively fluttering
I whisper ooh-aah
BOING!
Long-legged grasshoppers
Springing into spring
Enthusiastic pogo sticks
Froghoppers leap
Winning the high jump
Insect world’s athletes
A FLUTTER OF WINGS
Brilliant butterflies
Collectively fluttering
I whisper ooh-aah
BOING!
Long-legged grasshoppers
Springing into spring
Enthusiastic pogo sticks
