On hiatus with a praying mantis,
Lured by the Light, hands pressed in front of us,
A meal we seek: may mine be Glorified,
With snap and pop his falls electrified;
God’s creation, nothing superfluous.

- Comment from author about the poem: Peter, the praying mantis, patrols our front porch. This year swarms of mosquitos have assaulted our front door, driving us to plug in an insect zapper and providing a fertile pile of insect corpses for Peter to forage through. Written in an AABBA limerick, 10 syllables per line.

A good symbiotic relationship going on there, Gary.
Wishing both you and Peter well.
