An ambassador from the insect world greeted me today.
His arms were opened wide as he struck a gallant pose.
He was a praying mantis with wings-
in the most regal repose.
I stood and stared,
smiled and greeted him
as I knew the moment was rare.
I told him,
"You're beautiful"
and the words echoed in my ear.
I said the phrase again and again,
he was sent to me,
as a friend,
to remind me of this lesson once again.
