Do it with flair,
Jump off of there.

You will be going round and round,
It won’t be homeward bound;
Jump off of there.
~
The spin will make you dizzy,
Your brain will be in a tizzy;
Jump off of there.

I’am going to charge you fare,
You must take care;
Jump off of there.

Do it with flair,
Jump off of there.
It appears as if the Michelin man is trying to pull the Praying Mantis off.
While we were camping at Copper Breaks State Park outside of Quanah, TX, we encountered Praying Mantis everywhere. They liked hanging on to the coach tires; I believe for the heat.
Notice, the little leg hanging on to the rubber stub on the tire. I when outside to get something out of one of the bays and came back inside with one on my ear! Yikes!

Oh my gosh, I’ve never seen one of these before. I thought it was a walking stick!! I love how it’s hanging on to the stub and I love your little poem!!!
Hi Barb, they are cute little guys! It was adorable to see its leg hanging on to the tire rubber. Nature is so full of surprises! Enjoy your evening!
Oh no….on your ear? Quite unique little creature!
They are quite unique, I believe they can change color, because I saw a green one as well. I guess I should look that up. Yep, on my ear. I was entering the door and felt something, reached up to brush my ear and it landed on the dash. Of course, being a “girl” I had to shriek, which brought Howard over! Gosh!
